I have the launch (manufactured by Hite Trap) but the current mini are to hard the 22 shells won't break them consistently.
Two things: does anyone have a Remington Smooth-bore they want to sale? and does anyone know of a source for a softer mini?

George, I don`t believe anyone today makes the moskeeto / targo type targets for the .22 Shotshell. Also take a look at Henry Repeating Arms "Garden Gun" .22 Smoothbore. I think Federal offers a .22 shotshell...
