    I used to do a lot of compatition shotgun shooting and on average i would go through 1,000 to 3,000 rounds a day just for practice. When you are shooting that much recoil is a big part of the game.

    I have tried almost all types of recoil reducers made and the ones they showed work good, But not great. Also, Pistol grips can be awquard when shooting compatition.

    I suggest going with a Counter-Coil system. They work realy well and are perfect for compatition shooting.

    Click on the link, Then click on Counter-Coil Units.

    They are well worth the money.

    Interesting - I've never shot more than a box or two of 12GA
    before at one time.

    ... can't imagine 1000+ ... to me, that'd be nuts.[8D]

    Three boxes a day with a 12 leaves me with a black and blue shoulder. I bought a 28.

    I've been shooting competition trap and skeet for almost twenty-five years and I've NEVER heard of anyone shooting 1000 shells in a given day, let alone 3000! Sorry, but 40 - 120 boxes in a day seems to be one helleva exageration! Must either be the best shot in the world, or definitely the worst. Just imagine how long it would take to simply load and fire 1000 shells with any shotgun (pump, auto, or double), let alone 3000? Perhaps an extra "0" was added in error and should have read 100 - 300? [B)]

    Those numbers are correct. I am NOT lieing. I mainly shot skeet and Sporting clays. I graduated from school when i was 16, So i had a few years where i had all day to do anything i wanted. So i spent my time shooting all day.

    I won many of the local and state shooting compatitions and made perty good money at it for a while. Plus, i was good friends with the range manager so i got shells at cost. Then i would sell my hulls to the reloaders and make more money.

    Unfortunatly, Like every one does, I got older.[V] I got a full time job and now i hardly have time to go shooting anymore.[V]

    But, like i said before, I shot between 1,000 and 3,000 shells every day
