Special chokes for turkey hunting, which requires long range shots at the small head and neck of the bird, can go as high as 1.5 mm (0.059 in). The use of too much choke and a small pattern increases the difficulty of hitting the target; the use of too little choke produces large patterns with insufficient pellet density to reliably break ...
Target sizes of the chicken, pig, turkey, and ram targets, scaled to their angular sizes as they would appear if placed at the correct distances from the shooter during the fullbore rifle event with target heights of approximately 4-5 MOA (1.2-1.5 mrad). In the fullbore handgun event target the angular target heights are approximately three to ...
Special chokes for turkey hunting, which requires long range shots at the small head and neck of the bird, can go as high as 1500 micrometres (0.060 inches). The use of too much choke and a small pattern increases the difficulty of hitting the target, whereas the use of too little choke produces large patterns with insufficient pellet density ...
A Brenneke-style shotgun slug. A shotgun slug is a heavy projectile (a slug) made of lead, copper, or other material and fired from a shotgun.Slugs are designed for hunting large game, and other uses, particularly in areas near human population where their short range and slow speed helps increase safety margin.
The limited range of the slow, heavy slug—even a saboted slug—compared to a rifle bullet offers a safety advantage by limiting the maximum range. While buckshot is capable of taking deer-sized game, it is only effective at short ranges, generally under 50 yards (46 meters). A properly selected barrel and slug load can increase the range to ...
A man accused of attacking a Colorado reporter after questioning whether he was a citizen and saying “This is Trump’s America now” has had mental health issues for years, his lawyer said.
An ideal choke would be a cylinder bore (the loosest) as the hunter wants the shot to spread out as quickly as possible. If this hunter were using a full choke (the tightest) at 20 m (22 yd), the shot would be very close together and cause an unnecessarily large amount of damage to the rabbit, or, alternatively, a complete miss of the rabbit.
Hunter Christopher u0022CJu0022 Alexander poses with the deer he killed. The deer's rack was green-scored at a typical 206 7/8 inches, which would push it 5 inches past the Ohio record.
