I hoped you'd interject some advice.

It's just an afternoon event. But it's something to plan on and look forward to. I only want to perform to a self satisfactory level, beat my performance last year. All sorts of guns show up to the event. About 200-300 show. They (Remington) provides the ammo, no clue as to what it is. 3/4 oz 20 or 1 oz 12 #8 I figure, the cheap target stuff. Maybe left over dove loads.

Your note on fit says it all. It's so important in shotgunning (and others too). I have trouble getting a good cheek weld, getting my head down. Being grossly cross-eye dominant does not help at all. A nice tall rib is great. I find my sporting guns lack this.

I found some good deals on used shotguns. A good OU with lots of $$$ spend ton an an adj. stock, chokes etc. Only $1k, and I know it cost over double that. I could trade around and get a sporting gun to keep around. Use for trap and clays. A high rib adj. stock rig that really, really fits me. Thank for urging me to steer clear on the old 3200's. I think more trouble than worth. Remington never made a good OU or semi auto pistol, ever. I might just take one of my good fitting beaters or might trade some, make it fun. I'm out exactly zero and usually make a small profit, done right.

I'd about kill to shoot some trap with you and collect some pointers. Good shotgunning mentors are getting scarce. Thanks again.
