Well, guys, I finally got out this afternoon and got to go shoot a round of trap with my youngest son. Both of us were breaking in our new shotguns; his is a 20 gauge Mossberg and mine is that new Beretta Urika 20 gauge I got for my 25th anniversary (early present).
That Beretta is sweet! Thanks to you all who suggested the 20 semiauto, because it was a terrific idea. My shoulder is no more sore than when I shoot 25 rounds with my .243 and I think I have a new favorite shooting event. Didn't do too badly for my first ever trap outing (10/25) but I'll get better at it. The Beretta was everything I wanted...a fun shotgun without being punishing or uncomfortable.
And thank you, Archerandshooter, for my early anniversary present!!!!
