Worked transitions today on a target array consisting of US Poppers.
Six runs with pistol, from the holster, average time of 4.56 seconds
Multiple runs with shotgun from port arms, failed to keep track of time, average of just under 4 seconds
Load-12 Drill x 3
String 1, 12.83 with one left side peripheral hit, failed to knock down popper
String 2, 13.37
String 3, 11.82
Lessons learned:
It is very easy to for a training event to devolve into blowing off rounds if you are shooting with someone who has different shooting goals (My competitive training, his just to shoot guns on a fun target array).
FN SLP shotgun is amazing for target transitions The high front FO rod makes keeping a cheek to stock weld easy. I will look into installing a raised front FO rod on the VM. That, in conjunction with the raised comb insert should be great.
Don't get caught up in trying to shoot a brand-new drill quickly, it results in drive-by shooting instead of stopping on each target.
