Are you shooting FITASC ?

[Larry the Gun Guy]

FITASC is typically thrown at all of the state championship NSCA shoots and always at the regional shoots. But, you have to sign up quickly because it fills up quickly. And now they have FITASC for 20, 28 and 410; what a hoot! Since it requires no load over 1 ounce (and they check your ammo before you shoot) I like to shoot my 16 gauge Ithaca with 32" vent rib barrels and tight chokes. People look at you like you just arrived from another planet when you show up with such a gun, but it's my money and my time, so I shoot what I like. The challenge is that you can't practice it because every course it completely different and we rarely get to shoot long, obnoxious targets. And it may leave you stumbling off, mumbling to yourself, wondering why you paid for such torture. But if you broke them all, every time, you probably wouldn't come back.

When we hosted the PA State Shoot in 2021 and 2022, we told the FITASC referees we are not going to enforce any "dress codes". Those are just fancy-pants Frenchy rules and we do not care. I want guys to shoot and have fun. Low gun start, no gun movement before the bird is visible and 1 oz max loads are all good though.
