floater Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 My fiance and i enjoy shooting skeet with our friends... I am wanting to get something for her that is more comfortable and fits her better than my supernova. I was thinking that a 20 ga montefeltro with a youth stock would be ideal. anyone have experience with a montefeltro and a fairly inexperienced shooter? or if you guys have other suggestions, they'd be greatly appreciated. thanks, chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4BFamily Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 The biggest deal will be making sure ANY gun fits her correctly. Unless she's under 5' the MonteYouth might be too short. The normal monty might be the trick. My wife is 5' 3" and she shoots an M2 and loves it. But it took about 3 tries to get the gun to shim right. Now she'll run 100 rounds thru it at the clays course without any complaints about recoil or getting tired. We have the MonteYouth for my 10 year old and it fits him exactly. In fact I just adjusted the shim/drop to fit him as he's grown about an inch and a half since he got the gun in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest val_b Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 i think 20 ga montefeltro will be just right for her.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floater Posted November 30, 2011 Author Share Posted November 30, 2011 thanks for the input... she is about 5'-5" average build... i wanted to make it a surprise. so you definitely think the youth stock is too short? or would it be in my best interest to get her professionally fitted before picking the wrong stock (as they are expensive)? thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
