Good move Steve and a good choice on the Weatherby.
I had a cataract removed back in March and during my recovery period I decided to shoot my 410 Browning o/u to restart shooting but with low recoil. She’s a 725 with 30” tubes and I typically have (2) flush mount Mod choke tubes in it. I shot mostly 2-1/2” AA’s and about (10) 3-inch Federals on really far out clays for a total of 100. I don’t remember my exact score but it was only about 5 birds behind our high man that day with his Perazzi MX2000 in 12-gauge. A well fitted 410 can do wonders on a typical sporting course.
Actually I had some more recent surgery and am restricted on lifting with my left arm for two more weeks, and with Ernie’s approval I may shoot my 410 just for fun at Hausmann’s. I'm a right shoulder shooter and I won't shoot any overhead birds where I have to hold high with that left arm. Then I'm planning to stretch it to do some limited shooting at the Bo Whoop and Letterman SBT events with the 12 bores.
Again if the birds aren't too high.
