I've been shooting the occasional round of skeet off and on for the last two years, and I'm enjoying it. Gotten to the point where I'm hitting 18 to 20 in a round, and starting to take it somewhat seriously.
To that end, I'm wondering if I'm running the right ammo. I've been pretty much grabbing whatever shells I can find at Wally World. I have an 20 Gauge CZ Drake, (over/under).
Most of the ammo that I've found has been #7.5 or #8 in 7/8 oz loads, but I occasionally see 1 oz loads or #9 and I'm looking for advice.
I know that I need to pattern the load, (I've patterned the stuff I'm running and I don't see much variance).
What I'm really asking here is if the load I'm running is appropriate for skeet, or if I should be running something else?
Thanks.
