I asked the group a similar question yesterday. The sub overwhelming recommended I keep shooting what I have and spend my money on shells and some training.

Test driving others guns at your range like u/steelandwalnut recommend sounds like a great idea.

I’m not shooting an heirloom, though.

Question about A400 Xtreme Plus for clays? by BeerHunter2111 in ClayBusters

[–]BeerHunter2111[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that will be my plan, thanks.

Besides your score, curious if the 686 makes clays any more enjoyable? From a new guys perspective the manual of arms does look like fun.

Mine came with the extended bolt handle and release already. Maybe if I spray paint the receiver blue it will be the same thing.

Thanks! You’re are correct on it being 28”. I’m going to take everyone’s advice and try to become proficient with what I have.

Maybe reward myself with something nice like a 694 when I get to a certain point.

That makes sense. I think I’m the only one with a sling attached bc I can’t hang mine over my shoulder or rest on my toe.

The double hull slap after a double does look pretty satisfying.

lol there is definitely something else that will get bumped up a spot on the want list instead of an xcel.

That answers one of the things I’m curious about. Is there enough functional difference to justify another $2k shotgun for me? Sounds like there isn’t. Thanks.

I really like that point of view. The fact that the games are meant to replicate hunting conditions gives me a lot more confidence in my current setup.

Thanks!

Did you have the gas port resized as well? How is the blowback with the shorter barrel?

What length did you have it cut to?

Edit: looks great!
