I went and did it again!

I think I'm possessed. I can't go to a sporting goods store without fondling a few new shotguns. I ordered one of these puppy's from Gander Mtn. the other day. Browning 12ga. Citori Lightning Sporting Clay Edition. 30" ported barrels, 3 chocks, & 3 triggers. not sure what's with the extra triggers but, they come with the gun?

Ahhh. I see your wife caved in... The schwartz is strong in you.

Bring it to the next sporting clays shoot. Cant wait to see it.

Where were you a year ago?
i had one of those and sold it, didn't fit me (and of course, fit is very personal in shotguns, so no slam)
I bet it's still up at Gunsport in Boulder. (for a lot less money)

I'm still not sure why I need the 3 trigger package Brian. Is it for looks or ? The display model felt good to me in the store. Sort of like my Franchi 20 ga. but I like the extra weight of the 12ga. better. I hope we can get another Club Shoot together real soon. And in the meantime I'll be trying to break clay every chance I get. http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y220/Tedwantsthemdead/3.gif

My snap on dealer who is a AA class shooter just sold his to my brother for $800. No more POS spartans for my brother he also gave him 12 chokes.

Good choice Larry. [Beer]

I have ZERO idea what the extra triggers were for
I never changed mine.
My wife has a 525, hers has that too, she never changes either.
marketing crap, if you ask me.

Much better score today at Colorado Clays with the new gun! The fit was incredible. The weight felt good along with a smoother swing, no more herky jerky stop your swing crap. I shot a 61 out of 100 which is my personal best score ever. Now I need to perfect the fine details of the game and I think I'll be okay.

Take a lesson

Really, you'll be amazed!!!! at how far you can come up the learning curve in two hours.

[shrapmetal]

where do i go to take a lesson and how much do they cost?

[JohnTRourke]

There's a great guy out at Colorado Clays (actually just about every range has an attached instructor). Although I forget his name.

I want to say it was like 75 an hour?????????? and a 2 hour lesson (which is plenty)
It was a little more if you got two people (but less than double)

You'll save that much in ammo easily

Went to Colorado Clays today and shot another personal best score, (64) and I had a 0 on this one station that had 8 shots. It didn't seem to be that hard of a shot but, I must of let it get to me a little bit. It was a report pair and the first one came through the trees under some low hanging branches from about 10:00 towards you and dropped about 25 yards out in front of the station. The next one was even easier than that ( Yeah Right! ) It came from about 9:00 from left to right through the trees slightly going away and dropping. I never did figure out what I did wrong. I saw dust come off about 3 or 4 clays but, no breakaway pieces fell so they don't count. [Rant2]My new goal is to break 70+ by the end of summer. I'm seriously considering a couple of lessons too. Until then practice practice practice.http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y220/Tedwantsthemdead/3.gif

Remember, shotgunning, esp sporting clays is a game of optical illusions, you have to figure out what the illusion is before you can break it.
And the guy at colorado clays is DAMN good at it.
The bird is doing something different then you think the bird is doing.

Went to Colorado Clays Saturday for the first time. Had a great time. Great facility. Shot a 62 on the sporting clay coarse. Need to do some work. The night before was my bachelor party that may have contributed.
