I've shot a Parazzi MX-8 for about 12-14 years. I was shooting it about the time I punched into M class in the NSCA, at the 2010 US Open. Mine is an old gun, imported by Winchester and so stamped, and was originally a trap gun with 31.5" barrels, F/F chokes, non-selective trigger and a high stock. I swapped stocks to get it to shoot 60/40 and had the chokes opened to M/M, figuring that since I couldn't select barrels (chokes) I should have the same thing in both.
I have never regretted that decision. It remains a highly competitive gun for me and, even at it's weight (9 lbs.) it handles like a dream. I love the freedom that comes with not messing with changing choke tubes for certain presentations, and focus wholly on the targets at hand while my buds are swapping chokes to gain a perceived advantage for themselves.
Spreaders are the ticket for very close stuff and unpredictable presentations like rabbits. My favorite spreader load is the Fiocchi Interceptor, in no. 8s. I've loaded spreaders of every conceivable persuasion but have settled on these factory spreaders after patterning them years ago, then seeing the results. They are just awesome.
Congratulations on the new Perazzi, Andy. They are just wonderful target crushing machines.
