Someday I am going to get me a good Stoeger coach gun. Maybe in 20, or maybe in 12, I really really like 20s so I don't know.

Hey GOB
Those coach guns really have a limited use. Hard to hunt with except for really close shootin but if ya just have to have one..make it a 20. Less recoil

Dan, check out www.claytargetsonline.com for a guide to skeet/trap/5-stand/sporting clays locations nationwide. I don't know Colorado's geography very well (I've only ever been in the Denver airport), but it looks like there are a few to choose from.
I got started hunting with a shotgun, then moved on to rifles when I lived in Pennsylvania. Now that I am an Ohioan, my hunting, including deer, is mostly with shotguns, though I still have my rifles. I have several shotguns, though none which are really high-end. But I agree that it's the person behind the stock, not the gun itself, though I wouldn't mind having a five-figure firearm someday! (Emphasis on someday...) For the past few years I've been shooting skeet weekly in a league, and shoot a Baikal O/U there most times. I can't begin to calculate how many rounds have gone through it, and it works great every time. (I don't always, but the gun does!) I have other shotguns in single, semi-auto and pump, and love them all. |
