Hi guys,
I was out with a buddy today shooting some clays, great fun despite the snow! I had a lot of problems with crossing birds though. After a few misses I set a clay up at about 20 yards, and tried mounting and firing. I smoked it with no problems.
We then tried a few birds thrown from behind and away from me. I had no problem with these either.
I'm not the most experienced shotgunner and the gun has pretty tight fixed chokes (measured to .669 and 0.692), so I'm wondering if the problem is likely to be my inexperience, improper fit, or overly tight chokes.
If it's just me that needs more practice, have any of you any tips or ideas on the best way to do so?
Thanks in advance for any input.
