Hi All,
Nothing too dramatic to say. I just wanted to share that I had a fun afternoon with friends over shooting clay pigeons. These were the first clay pigeons I've shot. It turns out that when you and your friends are inexperienced a box of 90 targets lasts all afternoon! Some birds must have made 3 or 4 flights and I've still got about 1/3 of the box left.
Lots of fun. I hit a few and I started to develop an idea of where to aim in the second half of my session. It was fun to swap shotguns with my friends as well. I'm very happy with my Mossberg 20 gauge pump. I shot a few rounds through a friend's Franchi Affinity 12 gauge. It was interesting to feel the difference. The 12 gauge had more recoil and you could feel the semi-auto mechanism at work. The 12 gauge had a distinct double thump while the 20 gauge pump had one light push.
Off to cleaning and setting up the shotgun reloader.
