    Looking for 20 gauge Shotgun

    Does the Ben Avery Clay center still have rental shotguns? That would offer an inexpensive opportunity for the young man to try out a gun or two.

    Looking for 20 gauge Shotgun

    I have a new, un-fired Remington 11-87 Sportsman Compact 20 gauge I would sell. It has synthetic youth model butt stock but includes the spacers to increase the LOP. IIRC the barrel is 21" and I have some new extra chokes to go with it. I have the lock, plug, manual etc. (in north Phoenix)

    30-30 NonLead Loads

    IA Born, Yes, 150 TSX FN for the 30-30 with the big hollow point. Just went to the Barnes website and they show TAC at 32.4 gr max.

    30-30 NonLead Loads

    Just joined, saw your post. My brief experience FWIW: Working up loads for my son's Marlin 336 XLR, I found the Barnes max load with Ramshot TAC to be the most accurate (about 32 gr IIRC). It was giving 3 shots under 1" off the concrete benches at Ben Avery. Repeated that for a couple of groups so I kinda stopped development at that point. The Hornady 140 gummy tipped monos were about 2.5" but I didn't spend much time with them. Regular Federal blue box and Winchester silver box 150s were still decent at 1.5" - 2" for comparison. The Factory Hornady LEVERolution were the worst for some reason with 3"- 4" groups (stringing)
