Couple of years ago the FITASC shooters had to go from 1 1/4oz of shot to 1oz. Most bitched about what it would do to scores. The scores stayed the same. International games only allow 7/8oz of shot. And I've read a couple of articles in SC's magazines about how 3/4oz of shot patterns. In one the man claimed at skeet ranges the pattern was too tight unless the velocity was upped to 1300fps or fiber wads were used. Mike, was the velocity or wads changed ?
