  1. Junior shooters use 20 guages sometimes but I would think the problem for an adult would be struggling loading smaller shells. If you use the proper choke with a 20 guage it should knock down most steel. If your talking about the old bridge match 12 guage is the way to go, some of the racks can be cleared with one shot.
  2. Any time you want you can check out and shoot my Razor HD JM1, buy once cry once. You can get it cheap with the discount cabelas gift cards and active junky rebates.
  3. @High Exposure how many points on a license do you give someone for spelling errors?
  4. Gun stuff or yard sale stuff? Yard sale stuff I think anyone can post free in njgf list. Gun stuff you have to be a premier user. Click on the top bar where it says store and pick a membership. It's only a few bucks and you can post pictures in regular threads easier, no size limit. There use to be an option for regular members to pay a couple dollars for one ad in the guns and ammo for sale section, not sure if that's still the same.
  5. I wish I could send this to that card services scam that always calls
  6. Also pre registration is not required for new shooters so don't let that steer you away
  7. Show up and shoot! Steel challenge it THE place to get started. The link Scorpio posted is good also check out http://steelscoring.com/#/events make an account and you can pre register for lots of different matches in the area in seconds. You don't need a holster, belt or mag pouches to get started. If you do have those things and your comfortable drawing from a holster bring them and use them but like I said it's not required. Obviously you will need safety glasses and hearing protection. About 200-250 rounds you'll probably use around 180. If your shooting a rim fire pistol the start is always low ready so no holster required. Center fire is optional. The big thing is safe tables, do not uncase your gun until you tell someone you are new and ask about the safe table. (I don't feel like typing it all out but it's really simple) You will need at least 4 magazines, 5 is what you should have but if you only have 4 someone can load one for you while you shoot. Now there is literally a shit ton of divisions in Steel challenge so any gun and sight combination you have will work. Any questions feel free to pm me your number and time to call (it's goes for anyone) Get ready to have a ton of fun and become a better shooter really fast.
  8. Steel challenge at CJ, as long as the weather is ok I'll be there and youze guys should be too.
  9. Wow who is the camera operator, that was some smooth cinematography, Spielberg like lol
  10. Nope, no nationals at all in this state now.
  11. There's 2 MX tracks there, they are keeping the little practice track open but the big one is going.
  12. I heard they were knocking down the big MX track too and making it a parking lot just like Atco did, sucks.
  13. But seriously if you make the calls, write the letters, spread the word and do what need to be done we won't have to worry about it.
  14. How about sending some of your change NJ2AS's way, $35 or more if you didn't already.
  15. No better time to start than now, there is some kind of match almost every weekend at Quinton.
  16. Welcome to the forum, do you shoot 3 gun?
  17. I've seen 2, first one not sure what kind it was but it was a high dollar rifle so I'm sure it wasn't a cheap bcg, the gas key sheared both bolts off flush. Second one was a JP and the bolt snapped in half right at the hole for the cam pin. Supposedly that rifle had 10k rounds through it but I doubt it.
  18. I guess you had to be there all the many times this happened with many different length barrels all of witch had no chokes. They were hitting it just fine, you could see how big the perfectly centered pattern was hitting the berm around the steel. Bottom line is when you are looking to buy a shot gun, buy one with chokes so you don't limit yourself. It's less expensive, easier and smarter to just change a choke than a whole barrel.
  19. And here we go! (In the voice of Mike Goldberg) Ok so there are actually uses for SG's without chokes, well really only 2. One, shooting a deer 20 feet away and shooting peope. I'll bet any thing that no one on here will ever shoot a person, well at least not on purpose anyway. It's 2018 get a gun with chokes there is probably over 20 reasons to, I'll give as many as I can until I get bored or that baby needs attention. 1. Shotguns are by far the most versatile guns and have many many uses. B. Let's say your friends want to go shoot some sporting clays (I'll just assume you all know what sporting clays really is) and all you have is a SG without chokes. Well you won't break nearly as many clays as your friends that you know you can out shoot. Simply because they have a tighter patten for the far shots and a bigger pattern for the close fast clays. 3. Same as above just with 5 stand instead of Sporting Clays. D. Let's say another group of friends or even the same guys want to go water foul hunting. Really you should have a 3 1/2" gun with chokes but a 3" will suffice with the right ammo and a tight choke. 5. You want to impress the wife (or husband if you swing that way, don't worry I won't judge) and you go out to the WMA or your local range with a box of clays, the hand thrower or the old school spring thrower from tractor supply. Well now you can put in your cylinder choke, throw out a big pattern, bust them fast and close. She'll say wow your really good honey... VI. Your grandson wants to go turkey hunting and obviously you need a turkey choke so you can blow the bastard head off (the turkey not your grandson). Well just go get a turkey choke, some high brass, some skunk piss or whatever they rub on themselves to hunt and your all set. 7. This one I see all the time. Guys say oh I'll never shoot any kind of competition. Then the watch a 3 gun match at the local club and say wow I can do that or meh, I might give that a try someday. The next match they come out with their tactical HD SG without chokes because it's the only SG they have. So these guys do awesome with the pistol and rifle but they can't knock down a steel target with the SG 30 feet away because of the gun. So they spend more money on a new SG and the old non threaded SG sits in the back of the safe never to be touched again. I can keep going Why LIMIT the most VERSATILE gun if you have a choice?
  20. What ever you buy make sure it has chokes. Do not buy a shot gun that does not have screw in chokes they are useless.
  21. What are you talking about t bill? Did Murphy shut down active junky or something?
  22. You can only buy 3 gift cards at a time but they put new Lots up every couple of days so it doesn't take long to get a dozen or so of them. I just sent you the invite for AJ. Cabelas is actually 7% cash back right now, it goes up and down every now and then. They also do brownells and dicks. I can't remember how I did it the first time when TBILL invited me but I'm sure it's easy and the directions are in the email. Basically all you do is first go to the AJ website and sigh in to your account. Then click on the store you want on the AJ site, like Cabelas. Then sign into your cabelas account and buy what ever you want. You can still use gift cards and Cabela's coupons and whatever else you can find. After somewhere between 20 minutes to 5 hours AJ will send you an email saying your purchase was approved and how much money you get. If you link your Paypal account they will deposit in your Paypal account when you approve it.
  23. Plus 6% cash back from Active Junky. You can probably upgrade to the razor HD. Send me your email and I'll send you an invite so we both get $10. Thanks again TBILL for telling me about this.
