Pepper Popper Trap

ACP230 · September 29, 2002, 07:10 PM

I was at a Turkey Shoot this weekend and saw a type of shotgun competition I'd never seen before.
It was run with a club over and under shotgun. The competitor first shot a pepper popper from the hip. If he connected, it fell and threw a clay target as it dropped.
The second barrel was then used to powder the clay in the air.
I saw one shooter miss the popper from the hip, but most of the people I saw hit both popper and clay.
I didn't get to try it due to some other events that I'd already signed up for. It looked like fun though.
