Around 20 years ago I bought a C grade action with butt stock. As luck would have it they fit the barrels perfectly without having to do any fitting. Then about 8 years ago I bought a CEO grade fore end with wood attached and they fit perfectly. I finally took the complete gun out to Coyote Valley Sporting Clays this morning and put 100 rounds thru her. The gun shoots great and the ejectors work perfectly throwing the empties about 10 feet behind me right next to each other. I shot a couple of boxes of Win AA 24 gm loads and two boxes of 7/8 oz reloads. Ever since my neck surgery last year I have been sensitive to recoil and these loads are just what the doctor ordered. I just might give my 28 ga a rest and shoot this shotgun for a while.

Jim Actually I was only a collector and not a shooter until fairly recently. Charlie Semmer was disappointed that I did not shoot my Remington's. I started shooting Sporting Clays a couple of years ago and finally took this gun out. I put it together with the express purpose of making it a dedicated target gun.
