What do you mean you mainly shoot skeet nowadays. I would say you mainly shot skeet your entire life, Skeet!!!!

I don't shoot anything near as fast as you do for anything except maybe hunting loads. For clays, I usually stick with 1,200 fps on almost every load, whether it is 1 1/8 or 1 oz. That way, the leads are always the same. However, I do have one exception, and that is for 16 yard trap. I use a load going 1,080 fps in 1 1/8 oz., but have been thinking about using a 1 oz. load of 8's at 1,200 fps. That is my main sporting clays load and it seems to be working just fine on the sporting clays course.

I don't shoot or reload as much as Skeet, but everytime I sit down I usually load several thousand shells, if not close to 5,000. I figure once I get started, I might as well make a day of it.
