    Took an hr just to drag it across the yard with the chain block.
    Think ducks would have been better.

    My middle child shot on the farm with his Grandad and got 4...both very happy. I flew to Southland and we got 57 over the weekend (3 of us).

    Shoulder was a little sore after shooting a big irrigation pond, didn't stop us from backing up on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday on a couple smaller ponds total tally is now closer to 250ish I imagine.

    Shoulder not as bad as it looks I take blood thinners for a medical condition but still we all were very sore by the end of Sunday.

    The A400 Plus is super soft shooting.

    I bet, the whinny 1400 is pretty soft too but 200 rounds and shooting a few way out wide to the right and also a few behind made it impossible to shoulder it properly it was those shots that did the bruising. Mad keen or stupid not sure but the results speak for themselves.
    Hoping to upgrade to something with a bit more capacity and inertia instead of gas, it was filthy after the weekend.
