frolic1 Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I know that the M4 is primarily a "tactical" weapon, but has anyone had any success using one of these for skeet or trap shooting? If so what choke did you use? It seems to me that in the 30-50 yard range they should work ok. Quote
OhioM4 Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I plan on trying mine. I did ask at the trap range and the only bummer is they only allow one round to be loaded at a time. Visions of emptying my full length magazine at a single, helpless clay target have been dashed:( Quote

Novaking Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 The m4 is not used for this- The M4 is used for this- Understood! Quote

Did you try the special Home Defense ammo that spreads out into a huge cone of death at short range?? Check the other threads on the forum for posts on how you do not have to aim a shotgun in the house. Maybe you should try shooting clays indoors next time. Quote

Unobtanium Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I shot a bird with mine once. It was decisive. I was using a MOD choke and some #6 or smaller bird-shot. The winged beastie was traveling perpendicular to my position at approximately 30m distance. The shot was instinctive and required no follow-up. This is my only experience with the M4S90 on moving airborne targets. Quote
Domonlord Posted October 25, 2009 Posted October 25, 2009 I do it all the time. Using just the ghost ring sights, I outshoot a lot of people there. Not going to lie... I have gotten a few questions about it, but since it's my only shotgun... I'm very comfortable using it. Quote
frolic1 Posted October 25, 2009 Author Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks for all the info, I'll give it a try and see what happens. Quote
