I can't even pronounce it! Let alone know what it is....

I dont really know how to say it either, but they make some very very high end shotguns for elegant competition and fine hunting needs. Everything they offer is handcrafted and utterly beautiful.. Needless to say the do not have a tacticool line with cheap plaztik stocks and parkerized finishes..

sorry you thought my comments were candid rocky...
it was meant to be a comment based on experience.
im sure your coach gun will do fine as a coach gun, but if you plan on shooting more than 1 box a day, youre gonna think of my candid remarks and think maybe i really did care about you when it came to target shooting. good luck and ask all the questions you want. i'll do the best to spare you expensive and painful mistakes.

Bull.

Get a flashlight. Just a normal flashlight. Get about 2 feet away from the wall and turn the light on. There's a spot an inch, inch and a half, on the wall. Now go to the other side of the room. Turn on the light. Now there's a spot a couple of feet in diameter.

That's the way a shotgun works. The pattern gets larger, the farther the target is from the gun. You shoot a guy with a 12 gauge, at ten feet, and he's gonna have a one-inch hole in him. What this means is, you have to aim.

You said you practiced at 30 to 40 feet? You must have a helluva living room. Biggest room in my house is 16 feet in it's longest dimension. Unless you got some really large rooms, or you will only be using it outside ("burglars stealing the car" kinda thing), I'd suggest practicing at about 14 feet. Shoot silhouette targets, and see where the big hole appears.

Thank you, Alpo. That makes much more sense.
