      Browning B80 barrels

      As J pointed out that barrel was made by Beretta so its year of manufacture will likely determine whether it can be threaded. Beretta did not begin offering threaded barrels until they got to the 303 series. Some earlier ones will accept thin wall chokes but it is a case by case basis. Colonial...

      Some Rio Hulls appear cut when ejected.

      I go through several dozen flats a year and frequently shoot with others who shoot more. I have never seen a hull failure like that. It doesn’t look gun induced to me. I have used some Rios in the past and never cared for them. Seeing this I won’t be buying any more.

      Custom shotgun fitting

      Just saw today that Mike Sherman will be set up at Big Red Oak Plantation in Gay, GA from tomorrow through the 15th. After that he will be headed to his home base in NC and won’t on the road again until next spring. Though that is outside your specified radius if I was in need of gun fitting...

      Choke Thread Damage

      I’ve seen people get away with it while using lead shot but that time that they don’t is a major problem.

      Recommendations for a nice semi-auto clay shooter

      +1 on what J pace said if your budget is limited to $1K. The Beretta 300/AL series were some of the most reliable gas guns ever built. The 390/391’s are good choices as well. 391’s are popular and it is unlikely that you will find one that cheap but you may come across a 390 within your budget.

      The new Browning A5 “wicked wings” vs SBEIII trying to decide…

      I can’t help you in terms of experience with either but after 8 years of shooting sporting clays the most important thing I look for in a gun is how it fits me. Features may be great but don’t mean much if the gun isn’t shooting where you are looking. Sounds to me like the A5 is the best one for...

      Looking for a Trap/Skeet Range on the Mississippi/Louisiana Gulf Coast

      Gulf Coast Rifle & Pistol Club is in Woolmarket. The name may be a bit deceptive but they have 6 trap fields and 4 skeet fields.

      12 Gauge: Muzzle break or ported barrel?

      I have a Browning 725 Sporting with 32” ported barrels and a Beretta 682 Gold E with 30” unported barrels. Shooting sporting clays using 1-1/8 oz, 1200 FPS shells I personally can’t tell any difference in felt recoil or muzzle rise. But the ported barrels are much louder! I don’t have any...
