Did you know?

Did you know the speed on 20 Ga. 2 3/4 Dram 1 ounce shells is 1220 Fps ?

Information is for the American Trapshooter Championship shoot.

Gary, the 20ga Winchester AA 2 1/2 dram 1oz. is 1165 fps - AAH207.

 

Have not seen any of them yet. We have been talking 2 32/4 Dram shells all year.

I was bored so I surfed around a little.
Fiocchi shows a 20 Ga. 1 oz. 1,220 FPS shell

It is 2-3/4 INCHES, it doesn't show any DRAM measurement. At least not on the Sportsmens Guide site I looked at. This is the description for that shell

Gauge: 20

Shell Length (inches): 2 3/4

Shot Weight (ozs.): 1

Muzzle Velocity (F.P.S.): 1,220

Shot Size: 5, 6, 7.5, 8, 9

I was bored, but not bored enough to look anywhere else.

 

2 3/4 dram 20 ga 1oz = 1220fps, i looked at the boxes at Walmart

I personally like the 1oz 12 ga at 1350fps 7.5s

want your eyes opened? run a factory AA .410 over the chronograph. Not know what they are now but 30 years ago were about 1350 if i remember right. Brought some Orbea(?) shells home from Argentina in 1984 and they were about 1450 if i remember right. Real butt kickers but sure would turn ducks inside out.

 

I read this again because it moved back to the top and something I missed the first time around jumped out at me.

Just asking​

What would 20 Ga. shells have to do with that shoot? Does someone plan on using a 20 instead of their everyday 12 Ga.?

I know, 1 ounce is 1 ounce, but after shooting almost all your targets with your trusty 12 ga. smoke pole wouldn't it be kind of counter productive to pick up a 20ga. for a money shoot? I guess if you had a 20ga. tube that fit your Trap gun you could go that route but man that would be ballsy.​
