I believe you're right.

The shooters you DO meet in a shoot-off CAN see their barrels in their peripheral vision. That may account for why they'll probably be the last man...

I need prescription shooting glasses. Have used Decot's for decades. They sometimes hurt my ears. YRMV

We usually trust our gunsmiths to provide the answer to this question. :confused:

I can see the barrel, even thought my focus is on the bird. So can you. It's called peripheral vision. Even though you are looking at this print,...

It wasn't what Winston said, it was what the videos he took proved. I don't take anyone's word for anything without careful scrutiny.

You can tell from the vid that the GoPro was designed for a broad range of applications, and the ShotKam was designed for one specific purpose....

That's because when you shot trap with one gun that had a fixed choke....back in the day before choke tubes came into widespread use..... you had no...

If that were possible (reading target breaks), then the same "reads" could be had when breaking the same targets with a Modified choke. The pieces...

Because they are actually "shooting" the top barrel of the O/U, regardless of which barrel the shot comes out of.

Also, not everyone can shoot an unsingle (well), and most everyone can shoot a top single.

And you know you'd have done the same thing if it was a fixed Modified choke, don't you.

Load up those 1 oz. reloads with enough Clays powder and the Benelli will think it's a 1 1/8oz load....

I think Santa needs a gun with a bit longer LOP.

Probably not one of the top five "best" live pigeon guns available, eh?

Exactly what I was referring to. That barrel would be choked Full, regardless of what is stamped on it.

While I've heard a great deal about steel-based hulls sticking in gun's chambers, I've not heard about them damaging said guns.

The choke rating of a barrel (fixed choking) or of a tube (choke tube) is ultimately not determined by ID deltas, but by the pattern that it throws....

In this context, is "low gun" another way of saying "low hold point"??

Not 1968; 1988.

A .037" constriction is a .037" constriction regardless of the bore diameter. That said, you are right that a .037" constriction on that barrel...

Then why haven't you gone back to Full?? Something smells fishy.

Interesting. I shoot trap. It's non-ATA sanctioned, but it's still trap. Call it practice trap, call it casual trap, call it...

One thread today started about selling shotguns; zero replies to date (not exactly a hot topic, I guess), zero bumps for threads dealing with that...

Mistake....and I am unable to delete the post. My apologies.

I realize the mods do not start the threads, nor do they directly control what we members post. I'm saying THE POSTING MEMBERS here seem to want to...

Judging by the current threads, I'd say it was to talk about the ATA....good and the bad and its events. Not shooting, not target shooting, not clays...

I think he's still there occasionally under the name of "high lakes flyer" or something like that.

The above are the two most likely....

This thread may be deleted now.

Black History Month "celebrates" African-Americans; it's okay. Black Friday does not; it's probably going to be "offensive" to someone someday....

In my experience, yes.

Using the same choke as Dan (or Leo) will not make you as good a shooter as Dan (or Leo). Not any more than using the same brand of gun as Dan (or...

That's good advice if you shoot at the same level as Leo.

While you can miss centering the target by a foot and still break it, put the bird an inch outside the pattern and you will have missed it....by an...

Lots of athletes win Gold Medals in sports other than trapshooting. There is running, hockey, skiing, skating, boxing, swimming, equestrian,...

Full is the only choke to use in handicap. Anything from Light Mod to Mod to Imp Mod to Light Full to Full can be used for singles. Really open...

The liberal left-wingers in this country believe that the end justifies the means. I.e. they'll do anything it takes to achieve their goals....

A church fire is not generally considered a blessing.

Try relaxing just your trigger finger, not your whole hand.

Do not worry about gun fit, POA, hold points, foot placement, POI, shot size (just use 8's for now), payload, muzzle velocity, shell brand,...

Are the numbers (or lack of same) at the Grand indicative of trapshooting's overall health in this country? I have to wonder if too much emphasis is...

Some athletes (and we ARE athletes) just don't have the psychological makeup to endure long periods of practice. Those are the athletes that will...

They look slower because scorers and spectators are much further away than the shooters. At least they are at the clubs where I shoot.

You can tell all that from a photo of a man breaking a trap target??

There is no standard hold point, no matter what your gun's POI is. As a new shooter, you will want to try various hold points....from right on the...

Why would I take any hot water at all, let alone lots of it??

Well, actually you can....just not from TriStar.

As an avid trapshooter who is NOT a member of the ATA, my advice would be....join the ATA. It can expand your options in this sport AND membership...

Well, I will. Been using ER for about 20 years and see no reason to stop now. You have to be careful when you store it, though. Because it is...
