Double A Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hi Rob And every one it sounds like you have done it before mate .I used a remmi 1100 with modified [1/2] choke 28" barrel for many years and I always used 32g [1 1/8oz] no 5 shot over deeks and this cut down the number of runners drastically. My best being 76 in 1 1/2 hrs .You should have no trouble with a 26" skeet barrel.Just remember to face the deeks into or at a slight angle to the breeze [wind] when setting up. Good shooting and dont blink!! Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejay Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 to start off i use number 5 shot 32gm shells, express are very good and i use 1/2 choke on my auto ..pigeon out to about 25-30 yards give them no more than 0ne foot lead any closer give them less or aim for there beak you should start to drop a few ..i set up my center of my deaks out about 20yrds which i find works well so they are well in range ..stand up for your shots till you get any good at it ..wait till your pigeon have there wings tuck in to land then you can stand up for the shot as the pigeon will have its eyes on the landing spot ..do this and your hit rate will go up ..in coming and going away birds just blank them out and pull the trigger ..
