I didn’t embarrass myself too bad, great networking. I shot a 33/50 which is not too bad for me. I found I still had the bad habit of swinging past and stopping, only to shoot behind. I also was prone to shoot over them. Wonder how dropping the heel 1” affected that?! One thing I did notice, besides the looks lol, was that it increased recoil some. Enough I could tell, although it was not near as abusive as a field gun. I learned that many designated target sport doubles do not “reset” the safety upon opening the breach. My old Steven’s and Savages did! On the SKB the selector button is on the trigger. Poking it through to the right side fires the bottom barrel first. Brownings and Rugers there is a button on the safety or the safety itself slides right or left to modulate. I’m warming up to the SKB, it’s worth hanging onto for some more fun. Good thing they don’t eat much!
Winning team won $100 for each of the 5. Winning shooter was 46/50. They had a $1000 raffle for $25 a ticket. Only 51 sold so the odds were about as good as they get, close but no cigar. The Ark. Game & Fish facility in Jacksonville is a top class place.
