Sure. Thats the timeline development of the clay target sports. That goes without saying... You should also say that a number of shooters out there are also shooting semi autos.

Edit: I just lost a paragraph dealing with the development in the clay target sports from muzzle loaders shooting glass balls with feathers in them to the Winchester 97 and the ammo development along the way to Robert Stack winning a National Skeet Championship at the Chicago Gun Club wit an Browning A5..... There is huge history including Vinnie Hancock winning multiple Olympic Golds and The young Lady from California winning multiple Golds in Lady's skeet after changing over from Lady's Double Olympic Trap.

Has the single sighting plane changed the game... I guess so. Do some of us now like to shoot our old guns.... I guess so again. Does this mean SCTP shooters "should" be shooting SxS's .... NOPE, but it would be cool as hell to see one shoot a SxS well in competition. JMHO

Says the guy with 2 K80's, a tricked out 390 Sporting and an original Winchester Model Super X (1). Competition is within ones self if shooting for ones self. If its a balls to the wall competition SCTP Championship the shooter best shoot the best gun he/she has for the competition at hand.

JMHO
