Hi all,
I want to get started into skeet shooting and I have the opportunity to purchase a used Remington 11-87 premier skeet shotgun in great condition for $550.00. I shot skeet years ago and I really enjoyed it. I was wondering if this is a good shotgun to get me started in the sport. I eventually may want to buy a pricier over/under shotgun but that will come with time.
Also, the place where I will be shooting skeet also has sporting clays and trap shootong. I know that I should really get a trap gun for trap shooting but can I use a skeet gun to effectively shoot sporting clays?
If I really wanted to use a skeet gun to shoot trap then could I adjust the chokes so that I caould still compete in trap or am I fooling myself?
Thanks in advance,
Paul
