Lessons
Learned:
1. "Precision" is not really
a shotgun word.
2. There is only one way to know what
your shotgun will do at any range...
You must test it. And re-test it.
With a specific shotgun and a specific
load.
3. Different loads will have much
different spreads at the same distances.
At TR, I tried a fellow shooter's
high quality buffered and hardened
buckshot and my gun shot them into
much smaller patterns.
4. At close range, a 12 gauge shotgun
is a very powerful weapon. But it
lacks precision and this gets much
worse at longer ranges.
5. A carbine has the precision that
the shotgun lacks.
6. It's fun to shoot stuff.  |
