i just bought my first shotgun and am planning a trap shooting session this weekend. i have a few questions i need answered before i go though.
what the heck is a dram? i haven't been able to find a definition of it. the local trap range has a 3 dram max, 1 1/8th ounces of shot max.
so what would be a good load for some recreational trap shooting. mind you i am by far, no pro at this. i've only been twice before. the best round i shot was 13/25. cheap ammo is good. cheap, soft shooting ammo is great. (12 guage) i have bony shoulders. how about shot size? 7 seems to be pretty common. any other suggestions?
is there a primer on the rules of the clay shooting sports? trap and skeet are available at the local range. anyone have a quick and dirty rundown on the need-to-know stuff?
any other advice or suggestions are appreciated. thanks all!
