    Shot

    I went to the Northern SxS Classic in Meshoppen PA last Wednesday and shot every day thru Sunday . Shot about 700 targets total . But I brought back 55 bags of shot mostly 7 1/2’s , but some 8’s , some 9’s and a bag each of #5 and #6 . Now that wasn’t all for me but out of it I think I kept 22 bags . Those 22 plus what I already had should keep me going shotwise for a couple more years .

    Hopefully you brought the truck. I'd be the car would feel that 1400 pounds. What was the price, if I may ask?

    Reason for the two prices I initially asked for twenty bags of 7 1/2’s and when they got them they let me know and I paid over the phone . Then I decided I wanted more for myself and some friends and ordered twenty more bags . There was a mix up in numbers and I ended up with 15 bags more than I anticipated but I took it all and the truck handled it better than I thought it would . But my second order had gone up in price a bit . Even at $48 it’s cheaper than anything local and cheaper than any of my distributors after adding shipping . If I’d not been going there anyway to shoot it wouldn’t have been worth the drive but it all worked out .

    Thirty plus years ago when I shot skeet and or trap in competition darn near every weekend from March to September I'd come very close to shooting that much each year .
