    dskd.i think you would agree that the video was set up for a spectacular result.ok it is a visual world these days,but must our standards always be detirmined by idiots and the impressionable? if you had put a beretta A400 in that set up and fired a shot it still would have launched itself into the air and the gun would have been damaged on impact. in my opinion there should be a lot more awareness about ammo,the effectiveness of various loads etc.many novices think that big loads means more birds,no not necessary,it will damage gun and shoulder more and blow patterns apart.i would recommend that novices never shoot more than 35gms or steel that goes faster than 1450 ft/sec. i never have and i shoot my share and when i miss its never because of the ammo or gun,although i have used every other excuse.
