Was a great one! Only 4 shooters out so the guns were getting a workout. Been a fee years since I've duck hunted and with zero trap experience and only a little fun clay shooting in my life I was a bit nervous.
Shot a 19 on the first round with a IM choke, switched to the bottom barrel of the o/u which is IC and couldn't find where the pattern was going(new to me gun and new to over unders, that's my excuse) Dismal display with a 9/25.
Third round back to the top barrel but being a field model I think the gun got a little hot and the extractor got stuck a few times. Could have also been ammunition as it was cheapo winchester rounds. An OK 15/25 was the end of the night.
This post was to pose the question. Is it advisable to use my pump (wingmaster) for trap (selectable chokes) vs a field model o/u with fixed chokes of IM/IC? I questioned if I should put 1000 rounds through the Beretta s56 I have this year knowing the wingmaster will eat it up no problem although the Beretta fits like a glove.
