1ozLoad, take a look...

an internet score! After reading your posts about the A400 Excel, I decided to bid on one. Got it, it's the KO model with 30" barrel. I like the ugly blue receiver. I have a buyer should I decide to dump it. Always have a safety valve...

I had the opportunity to shoot a round of skeet with that same gun last weekend. It was nice. It cycled every one and there was virtually no felt recoil with my light 7/8 oz loads. I wasn't a fan of the blue receiver, but other than that I enjoyed shooting the gun.

Managed to get out for a couple of round of trap week before last. Used the 20 and shot fairly well.

Nice grain on the stock. Is that blue all the way through? IOW, what shows up when it gets scratched?
