    old-dog To get started in skeet, get a Remington 1100 with tubes or if an older gun, fixed Improved cylinder or if you can find on, fixed skeet choke. Keep it clean and you won't go wrong. A few years ago most guns you saw on a skeet field were 1100's. (I am not talking expert or tournament shooters) I love shooting skeet!!!

    +1 for screw in tubes. Skeet #2 is my favorite for everything. Be sure and pattern your load to make sure it does what you want, not what some book says it does.

    I agree with the 1100 but he was specific about an O/U. Remember picking of shells is a PIA though

    I would choose an O/U for two reasons: The first is saving the hulls for reloading and the second is for follow through. The extra weight of the barrels will help there.

    I started with a 28" Citori field, bought at 26" Citori Skeet, and later purchased a Citori 28" All Guage Skeet. It gets addictive.

    Right now I am considering a 1985 Citori and a Superposed from 1952. I am in no hurry. I am trying to stick to O/U

    There is also a Rem SPR 310 (obsolete) but it looks too bush league for me, like an arcade shooter.. It is NOS, and would likely be good for a collector, but it's priced right at the top of it's "book" value. I want a shooter!

    Shooting skeet is the easy part. Cooking them is something else. Here is a possible recipe.
    Clean and dress the skeet. Obtain an white oak board 1inch thick, 6 inches wide and 12 inches long. Marinate the skeet in a worcestershire sauce overnight. put them on the oak board and place the in a 400 degree oven for four hours basting occasionally with a butter and garlic baste.
    When done remove from oven, throw away skeet and eat the oak board.
