Great shooting! Congrats!!!

John,

I would appreciate you sharing which ammunition your used for both single and double trap. I've been communicating with Heritage Gunsmiths (Jim Eyster) and their barrel tuning. I have a Browning B-25 which they tuned several years ago and the shot pattern is on a totally different level. Upon my discussion with Jim the relationship between choke, velocity and number pellets has modified my thoughts on ammunition.
Thank you

Congratulations John, nice shooting! See you at The Grand...

George, Jim did the barrel work on both my doubles trap guns. You won’t be disappointed. In competition, for singles I shoot Winchester AA’s, 1 1/8 oz, 8 shot, 1145 fps. In doubles I shoot RIO’s, 8 shot, 1oz, 1135 fps(light recoil) for the first shot and Winchester AA’s, 7.5 shot, 1 1/8 oz, 1200 fps, for the second shot.

A TRUE Trapshooter! (barrel work). One does have to reduce recoil using the Parker guns; no "Rhino Rollers", Super Handicap or Nitro27's.

I dunno I shot 1 1/4 ounce 1360 fps pigeon loads in the VHE vent rib trap I used to have . And I’ll shoot them in the present VHE 32” straight grip I have now .

Either not recoil sensitive or over 245# works!! :rotf:
