3 Gun Match with Remmy

hube1236 · May 18, 2002, 07:02 AM

Used my stock 870 (with three dove kills and one rabbit and 14 clays per set average) to compete recently in a 3 gun match. I used HD loads, 2 3/4 #4. Did not have the gun fully seated before the first shot...

Two hits, me hitting the trigger, the gun hitting me...Ouch

Outside of having to relad more often than the others with their riot gear, 5 in the gun vs 11, I was happy with the performance.

Thanks, Hube. Once again, a stock 870 is an awesome weapon in trained hands.

If you show up at a match where there are required prone slug shots- borrow an 1100.....
