Hey SGW. I am looking to get started with shooting trap / clays. Pardon my ignorance as I don't have much experience / knowledge between the different games. Though that isn't the idea of this post.
I am very interested in getting an O/U and have had my eye on specifically two models. The Mossberg 12 Silver Reserve w/ 28" and the Savage, Stevens 512 Gold Wing 12ga 28" The reason I am looking at these two is because they are so far the most comfortable for me.
I know both guns are cheap but I can't justify spending $1,000+ for a gun when I am not too sure about how involved in the sport I'm going to be.
I have seen a few other threads like mine and always have seen responders ask a few questions so I'll try and do my best to clear things up ahead of time..
I am about 5'10 225 lbs, I am planning to shoot maybe a few times a month at first, and see how "into it" I get, and may possibly shoot more often. The gun would mostly be used strictly for trap as I have an 870 express to hunt with.
If any other information is needed, please go ahead and ask. Thanks!
I also made an identical post in the "Clay Shooting" section of the forums but thought it wouldn't hurt to post it here as well as I am trying to get as much information as I can. If any of the moderators have an issue with this I apologize ahead of time.
