Staccato Ranch

This is the next shooting trip I think, going on a Staccato factory tour then shooting clays sounds amazing.

So Black Jack sporting clays is awesome for anyone who goes down there. About 1.25 hours from Disney, they had 3 regular courses and one Super Sporting course that I really enjoyed. The extra challenging targets were a blast and my browning earned its keep. I need to shoot some super sporting this year apparently.

If you want a real challenge, try internation bunker trap- At 71, knees went bad, thought I would give that a try --Light loads and super fast birds.

I have to admit when I was there last weekend, a used CG Summit had my attention. And yes, it was a beautiful gun. And, they are know for good customer service. Except they are only serviceable through CG certified shops.

Not a gun that I would ever use for hunting though. I just wouldn't want to get it scratched up that way


Edit- another option would be look at some of the exclusive Browning options from Guns Unlimited. If I were in the market for another O/U, I would be looking really hard at their Browning Universal High post. It can be had with adjustable comb, butt plat and rib along with either a traditional sporting style stock or parallel comb. For the money they are a great bargain.

CG is usually at IGC during the state shoot had mine rebuilt twice

How many rounds a year do you shoot? Mine has 40,000 rounds and just getting broke in, may be next year for its first pit stop.

I would have done a pit stop before that but it’s not my gun. Replacing the internal springs at regular intervals is important. I don’t want to find out when my gun will go down the hard way personally.

I get where you are coming from but I know of a couple guys that put about that many rounds through their guns in a year.

I can't confirm actual round count, but I have been told some years they put 30k+ through the barrels. Personally, I can't even wrap my head around shooting that much in a year.

My 40,000 rounds is what my C.G. has shot My question was having a gun pit stopped twice already. C.G. gives three free pit stops for a new gun and one free pitstop for a used gun. Then you're hooked because they do not sell parts. $170 to replace a $5.00 firing pin-$400 for a locking block? Wasting a pit stop can come around and bight you in the a##.
