Thanks, it took me watching this over and over to understand it. I watched your video on toe cast then I could see what you were explaining. Great help.
Thanks. Don't always assume your shotgun's top barrel will impact at the same point of the bottom barrel is the lesson to be learnt from this video. Gun fit can be the culprit.
Love your videos. Thanks. So if your cast is correct and the second barrel does not shoot straight, then you have a barrel alignment issue and back to the manufacturer?
Thanks for putting another informative video out! I actually patterned 2 of my shotguns a few days ago and one of them is showing a big point of impact issue on the top barrel. I'll go back and test the gun out this week doing what you just showed to see if it's me or the gun. Thanks again!
Hi. Does it mean we move the head after the first shot and change the position of a head? Is it moving on the stock? Than you say the second shot is usually "always" taken with different head / stock position like the first shot is taken? Interesting information. Never heart about:-) Thank you very much for this lesson!
If your shotgun is set up correctly with the right amount of pitch, cast and drop your head should stay still and both barrels will impact the same in most cases. If not….. you have a problem
I think most "experienced" shotgun shooters should be able to get you started. Sadly not all elite shooters or even stock makers are great at stock fitting
I recommend learning and understanding what a good fit is then buying a gun whether it's new or used you must 1st be able to use it in the show room and feel how the fit is and determine there whether that gun will work when you get it to the field and make fine adjustments
It's a really good question, thanks for asking. Larger framed people generally need more cast at the toe, but the consequences of a lack of cast here can more easily be seen after the recoil of the bottom barrel has pushed the gun out of alignment down the centre of the barrel. From my experience cast at the toe is just as important as cast at the heal if you are relying on your second shot. This is very evident in events like ATA Doubles and Olympic Trap. Hope this helps. Take care
Thats pathetic. You gave a great explanation to fitting a gun it made realize how important it is to being a good shooter a d having fun. Unfortunately people buy very exspensive guns thinking thats going to make them good shooters. I shoot with guys and their $4500 Ceasar Guerini's and they are only fair shooters like myself. You opened my eye's. Find an expert in fitting a gun before buying a gun. Thanks

Never ever seen a video on patterning your second shot and yet this could be critical in competition. Thank you for thinking outside the square.cheers

Em Looking for a gun and pattern, you opened my eyes, Thanks for precious advice in free.
Thank you I will be testing my gun.

I would “benchrest” the shotgun like a rifle, to absolutely prove to yourself that the barrel is incorrect
Good video. I got my new Beretta 694 with adjustment and now I know how to fix that, thank you !
Glad to help
Good stuff!
Good vid
Thank you

Awesome
When buying a gun do I buy new and have a professional fit the gun? That seems to me the only way to get the gun to fit properly. Thanks

if cast at the heal affects the top barrel does cast at the toe then affect the bottom barrel in the same way?
