In the Perazzi of mine, at 40 yards, it throws a handicap 7.5 load just under 25".

What about make money? Handicap is where the big bucks are at in trap. Every year at the grand, they have a $100k handicap shoot off that invves the top ten shooters of the Grand week shooting off for that great prize that Bill and Lee Ann Martin donate every year.


What about lose money, and spending a lot of money while not improving your hunting skills the way that the other games do?


Depends on what skill your after to. I do a lot of jump shooting for ducks. Trap also can help for flushing upland birds going away from you. Any good amount of shooting is better than shooting 4 boxes a few months before the season and calling it good.

After duck season, my shotgun goes in the gun safe. Most years it doesn't come back out until the night before opening day of duck season. I don't see any reason to "practice".

You do realize this is a duck hunting website and not a trap shooting site right? What a trap gun does with lead 7.5's is completely irrelevant.

You do realize this is the shotgun forum right? What hevi-shot 7.5s in a duck gun does is completely relevant.

So what factory loads should I test through that Riot Gun at 20 yards? STSs, AAs, Gold Medals and Papers? Or the cheap stuff like Top Guns, Universals, or Gun Clubs?

That would be a sin to shoot steel in that Wingmaster. Only ones I can test for Steel is Xperts, Nitro Steel, and the Blue Box. None of the other stuff is locally in town. Which ones do you want me to test first? Can't be bigger than 3" if you want me to shoot it through the an express or 2 3-4" through an 1100. Give me a brand and choke to use and distance. Will more than gladly do it, just have to give me info.

Why not test what you hunt with, then keep the results to yourself. Every gun patterns different so knowing how your gun patterns is as important to me as knowing what jehlers midgets like for lunch.

Be careful, jehler might drop by your crib one day and have you baby sit. You might be fucked.
