OK, The shoot is over, it's almost 0200 the next day, I'm at work and it's still hot!

The shoot went well. She went BANG every time I pulled the trigger.

Recoil wasn't anything like I though it would be in a 6 pound shotgun, no not even a 20 gauge one. It has a nice recoil pad.

The shucking handle worked flawlessly, nary a bobble Still just a little "Slow" but it's new. A couple more boxes and it should start smoothing out.

Started out with #8 and #9 birdshot (hey I had some 40 year old ammo to get rid of, One box of slugs had a price tag of $2.99 for Winchester Super X Slugs)!

At 15 yards the full width of the B-27 target (full man sized silhouette) was covered with birdshot of course, AND #3 buckshot. But strangely (or maybe not) there was a hole with the buckshot right in the middle of the X ring about 5 or 6 inches long and maybe 4 wide where there wasn't any pellets. Gonna have to check this out again later, maybe even try a modified choke tube in it.

With slugs at 25 yards (longest range I could get) it held three Winchester Super X 7/8oz slugs in a pattern that would be covered by the bottom of a soda can. I figure that ain't bad offhand with those sights (ghost ring rear hi-vis fiber optic front).

All in all I am quite satisfied with my new toy. Later on when it's not quite so hot I'm gonna take the wife out and let her shoot it and see what she thinks. If it keeps doing as well or better than today, I may try for the SA P-459TR.
