Thread: Rifle shooter or shotgun shooter

I've always shot rifles since an early-age start with an air rifle. Borrowed a semi-auto shotgun about 2 years ago to clean up peacocks and turkeys around the farm, now I'm hooked. Gun fit is EVERYTHING. I can hit clays as well with a $1000 Akkar as I can with a $8000 Beretta. My rifles still come out for a crack, dust off and a clean, but I shoot clay targets every weekend (trap, sporting or skeet). For ammo costs, I find it cheaper to run a shotgun on target loads than it is to plink for an afternoon with the .17HMR or .22mag. The cost of clay targets negates that however. Here's my haul from the last club champs.
