    Focus....

    It's been said that trap is over 90% mental. So it stands to reason that if you are going to change your score you have to change your mind. The Kid

    best shotgun for home defense??

    Dave, if I lived within a 2 hour drive of Central Md, I'd move. And like the Benelli ad says a shooter CAN put 5 shells in the air at once, try that with your "serious" 870. If your ever get to a state shoot in Mason Michigan or the Grand let me know. I would consider it a honor to...

    best shotgun for home defense??

    "The sound of the gun being racked is a crime deterent all by itself." Don't bet your life on it. If it's speed for pure speeds sake the Benelli auto's can fire the fifth round before the first one hits the ground, I've done it. And if you believe the 870 and Mossy is more reliable than the...

    Shotguns in Bloodwork?

    I thought I saw a FTE so it might have been a Mossy and the click, click sounded more like a clunk, clunk. :p KK

    Reloading multiple shotgun shells FAST

    3 gun competition? A race? How about extended mags? Autos rule? I must be missing something. I, like the old bull will walk down and "visit all the heifers". There are many ways to make SC more challenging but loading speed doesn't reflect any real field sport. But that's just me. KK

    Using BPS for trap

    Dot, thank God for a new shooter that doesn't know everything and has the good sense to ask. Many clubs have an "open or out" rule meaning the action is either open or the shooter gets kicked out. It a good safety rule that we can all live with. Enjoy your BPS, I have mine, and shot many...

    A kickless 12 gauge...

    The Browning recoiless is a wierd looking bird too - it never really caught on. I like my 1-1/8 ounce loads at 1080 fps; four rounds of trap is no problem.

    Help - Looking for a good SxS Shotgun.

    A Merkel with choke tubes? That doesn't sound right but the price is. Get a few days return policy and give it a good work out.

    barrel life

    On my Remington 22/250 I could no longer touch the lans after 3000 rounds. It still shot well but it fouled easily and had to be kept very clean to group. I also enjoyed that rifle very much and feel I got my money's worth out of it.

    Varget powder for .308

    Nobody can predict which powder is going to shoot the best in any one rifle. That's what the bench is for and it must be rock solid with proper bags or you're just spitting into the wind.

    Effective distance, shotgun @ fullchoke?

    After a 5000 round season of Trap and Sporting Clays my skills are polished. Practice is paramount, how can a shooter get 60 yard practice if he never shoots past 40? I'm not going to say a bird is never lost or crippled, no one is. Every effort is made to retrieve every bird, my retriever does...

    Effective distance, shotgun @ fullchoke?

    I've patterened a shotgun or two and found that with steel, in one particular gun, using a modified at 40 yards was a waste of time and money. My pattern was to loose to kill even a duck. Shooting ducks over dekes is one thing but pass-shooting geese is something else. They say I can destroy a...
