"One slug" - I love it!

I did a detail strip and clean last night on my shotgun.  I hated to do it so close to the match, as it always threw the zero off on my old shotgun when I pulled the barrel, clamp, and tube.  But it was having strange malfunctions during loading practice, so it had to be done.

I found nothing wrong or overly dirty, so I looked deeper.  Turns out I've worn deep grooves in the rims of my dummy rounds, and pressed the rims themselves out far enough they were jamming both in the tube and in the chamber sometimes.  It might just be time to retire these dummies. 

 

So I made time to zero the beast today for the "one slug" tomorrow, and started by shooting 3 slugs from kneeling at 50 yds just to see where I was.

I'm calling it good - I'm really starting to like this $140 shotgun!

Nope. That's lousy accuracy. Just give it to me and I'll dispose of that shotty for you. lol

Pretty darn good. What shotgun are you using?

Thanks. Absolutely nothing wrong with an 870  Love them. Actually been sort of looking for one. I don't shoot much shotgun, if any in the last few years; but do have a Mossberg 590 stashed away somewhere.

Scores are up.
