i see a lot of you guys out there are always talking about pump actions for trap,skeet,sporting etc especially the 870.is this because you have a class for shooting pumpy's or do you just prefer shooting them over auto's and o/u's.i only ask because it is not very often you see them turning up to shoots down here in NZ especially for trap and skeet.it is usually joe average duck shooter who turns up for a lash before opening weekend
Your right, joe average comes to the trap or skeet field with a pump. Most are just getting in a little practice before hunting season. The real target shooters use O/U guns. The O/U skeet guns most times have a tube set for the smaller gauges. When i get bored shooting skeet, i get out the pump for some fun. |
