  1. Just got this. It would be a shame if the matches were stopped...

     

    The future of Black Powder matches at Easton Fish and Game is in jeopardy. The attendance at past matches has been very poor. We need volunteers and participants in order for matches to continue.

  2. The best 20's for kids are Youth Model gas-operated semi-autos like the one I have. I've taught many a Scout/Kid/4-H'er how to knock clays out of the sky with the light-weight 20 that swings easily and has a smaller LOP.

     

    This.

     

    Because of their lightweight/smaller receivers, perceived recoil in anything other than semi-auto is as much or more than a 12ga. Of course, you can load your own to make that much less at the sacrifice of performance. If you're on a budget, the CZ/Stoeger/TriStar semi-autos are fine. Of course, I always recommend a Beretta 300 series but they are more expensive(holds value though).


  3. 12ga is a big advantage over 20ga. I coach kids and as soon as they can handle 12ga that is what they shoot. If you think about it, there wouldn't be separate competitions for sub-gauges if there was not a big difference. Besides, a quality semi-auto 12ga will shoot very soft. Beretta 300 series are perfect as well as their newer A400's.


  4. And they DO check your paper work and quickly. Me and another board member had a private transaction and I wrote a wrong character for the serial number. I got a call about a week later asking me to verify and sure enough I screwed it up. They were very nice about it, and were just checking so they could update their records.

  5. Thanks for all the helpful info.

     

    Bob...I bought the gun from a member here but have never shot it. If I remember correctly he had SA do a few things to it but it's a basic GI model. Is the spring easy to swap out? Just wondering so I can switch it out between low brass and high brass, or is it cumbersome?

  6. Not sure if this is the correct forum for this but thought maybe the competition guys reload wadcutter. I want to start shooting bullseye so I would like to shoot wadcutters in my 45. I've heard that they can lead to bore fouling. Any info would be appreciated. I hope to start reloading soon.

     

    TIA
