tagacali Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 How many shotgun rounds typically each stages in 3gun? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark R Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Since shotgun requires the skill and is the art of reloading...more than 9 usually. Depends on how evil the match director is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3gungeezer Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 In my limited experience I would say around 20 is average but I did shoot one that was 42 rounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaskapopo Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 It depends on the course of fire. I have had up to 38 in a stage before. I like to see at least one big shotgun stage in the match with several more medium sizedones. (12-16) Some match designers afraid of Saigas have limited their stages to 12.

T Bacus Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 We had a shotgun match here in VA once, which unfortunately I was unable to attend, that was a single 150 round stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Depends on the match style, the MD, range issues, props, etc. I've shot them from 4 to 52 required rounds. At a major, I would say 15 is about average on a 3 gun stage and 25 is about average on an all shotugn stage with the high being 41 in the last 3 years. So for loading, subtract 9 and required loads in thelimited divisions is about 6 per stage and up to about 32 required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gng4life Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 (edited) We had a shotgun match here in VA once, which unfortunately I was unable to attend, that was a single 150 round stage. Huh?? 150 shotgun rounds? Were there reloading stations or something? That's just devious! Edited July 23, 2012 by gng4life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
