Shooters: This Sunday July 3, NECPL will be having a shotgun match at Metacon Gun Club in Simsbury. We will be using mostly all steel plates, some will require being knocked over like the Texas Star and plate racks and some will require being only hit. All steel will be set at a MINIMUM of 10 yards from the shooter. At 10 yards a gun with a cylinder bore or open choke may not be able to knock a plate off the Texas Star so if that will be the type of barrel you will be using I would suggest bringing at least a #6 shot of 3-3 ¼ dram with 1 1/8 oz shot. I am not sure even that will work as I have not tried it. All others using a choked barrel of Modified should have no problems with 7 ½-8 shot in a 2 ¾-3 dram with a 1 1/8oz load. There will be 5 classes of guns 5 rounds or less for pump and auto 6 rounds and more for pump and auto Magazine fed guns No restrictions on sights or loading devices. There MAY be some movement so keep that in mind for ammo retention and it will be AT LEAST one run on at 30+ targets. There may be some clay birds. Match start time is 11:00am
