I know shooting a stationary bird is not a good test of gun capability, because the "spin" assists in the break. However, However, an eighty yard bird, by the time you shoot it, has very little spin. How about shooting stationary clay targets at 70, 80 and 90 yards to see what happens "out there"? If you set up a close quarter grid of maybe nine targets, how many of those targets do you think would even have shot in them? As Mike, Stan, and I know, shot string does not increase the number of shot in a long target over and above a paper target, it decreases the number of shot in a long target. How do we break those birds?
