My son would like to try some clay bird shooting after having had the chance to do it at a VT Fish & Wildlife Conservation Camp.
I have a great old vintage Remington cast iron trap-
and my place is about 15 acres, with a long meadow.
At the very back of the meadow runs a significant electric utility line.
I do not want to inadvertently pepper the utility line with shot
I have tried Googling but this is one of those instances in which there seems to be a deluge of info but none of it what I am looking for- I am not interested in maximum effective range, but rather in maximum worst-case possible distance the pellets can travel.
His shotgun is a Mossberg 20 gauge; I might break out my good old battered but indefatigable Winchester 97 12 gauge
Appreciate any info or pointers to relevant info.
thanks!
