My 9 year-old son has shown great interest in shooting clays. It's a nice "break" from the .22, and he likes the moving target, etc...
He used a bolt action .410 the first time out because I figure a 16 or 20 would beat him up. Needless to say he didn't get beat up, but it's quite a challenge with the .410. He was getting a few, but not enough to keep it fun. I don't want him getting discouraged.
A local shop owner swears that a 28GA Remington 1100 auto, with an cut-off aftermarket stock is *the* way to go.
Any opinions here?
