[QUOTE="HSmithTX, post: 2497305, member: 121677"] I shot a lot of clay targets with a 20ga and 3/4 ounce loads to save recoil, money (components) and improve my shooting. Tighten the choke up a little and you lose nothing in distance capability to break targets, but you have to be more accurate and especially when the targets are close. I shot a lot with a 12ga before and during also. Orange Dust has given great advice on the gun and training side, and I agree 100% get training and spend what it takes to get a good gun. I've seen a few Citori's/525/625 that were worn slap the (blank) out, round counts under 100K on a couple of them, and some other more expensive guns with several hundred thousand on them get a tune up and keep going with no issues. Back in the days when components and targets were cheap I and a lot of the guys I ran with were shooting 1000 a week on a normal basis. Doesn't take long to wear a gun out. The autoloaders died quickly and in quantity regardless of maker back then LOL. [/QUOTE]
