Stoegers are decent hunting guns but will loosen up after 1000 rounds or so. They just are not made for 50 to 100 rounds per week every week like you will be shooting in trap and skeet. I have had several customers in the shop a couple of months after getting a Stoeger(not from me) asking how to tighten it up.
Most hunters won't shoot 100 rounds per season.
Look for a good used Ruger , Browning or other quality O/U with choke tubes for skeet and trap. At least 30" bbls.
