I started shooting trap and kept trading up until I got a Ljutic mid rib. The stock and adjustable butt plate were set up for the last guy that owned it. And they were all out of whack for me. I couldn't hit squat with it. The guy I got it from was with me when I first shot it and he told me I had too bring the gun right up to the target. I started breaking targets left and right. I could tell the gun shot about 40/60 and I loved it. Big difference from the 686 I started out with. Soon I was breaking 25s and 49s or 50 straights in the league........... Now just for fun, I shoot an 870 or a new BT-99 I bought a few years back and things went south. I shoot for the fun of it. But I'll never forget the one ol' guy who would tease me when I was shooting that Ljutic- every time he'd see me he would shake his finger at me and say, "Now aren't you glad you did what I told you to do and stayed AWAY FROM THAT PATTERNING BOARD!! I'll never forget him. He's still around somewhere. 😆
