so how fast are "normal" 3 gunners...

[James Peel]

at loading 8 shells? I know Jessie can load a box in 3 seconds or something ridiculous and others have posted sub 4 second runs, but what should an "average" person expect?

I'm feeling pretty good personally about being able to load 8 in 5.4 seconds, weakhand - load 2 method, but also feel like that may be pretty far off the pace

I will wait for others to weigh in with times.... but Jessie was spending "hours" a day learning how to do this the way he does. Practice will make you faster and once you figure out how to set up your belt and caddies--- be consistant.

If you can average or be under 1 second per shell, you'll be fine amongst average 3 gunners

8 shells in 5 seconds is good, that right in the average section for people who practice and use the load 2 but also have a life outside of shooting. Eventually, keep pushing a little and you'll be in the 4 second range and that would be excellent.

Now, is that reloading on the move or static?

Static. On the move I need about 6 seconds, and then in competition about 30, not counting dropped shells :haha:

A consistent 6 seconds is better than a wildly inconsistent 4

Chambers back on boomer so r we going to c u at a match anytime soon. I need an epic chambers beat down

 

[Chambers]

hopefully! it seems like the last few I've tried to attend have been affected by weather, etc.

Need some trigger time.

 

[jhjh11]

A lot of trigger time ur trailing behind in round count

I don't know any "normal" 3 gunners

I've spent about 5 hours learning how to quad load 12 in 5 seconds. It happens in about 6-7 seconds on the clock most of the time. As chambers said consistency is the key.

The old goal used to be 1 shell per second now I'd say its 1 shell under a second.

 

[jtischauser]

Also, I spent about 30 minutes today learning strong hand quadloads. Never really gave it a shot but in that time still feeling a bit awkward i was busting out 12 rounds in 6 seconds reliably with my fastest being close to the 4.5 mark.


The more time you give it, the better you will be.

I know a guy that used to spend more time practicing shotgun loading than shooting. He's done pretty well. Keep it up!

 

[jtischauser]

I dont make videos showing my speed anymore because I caught more crap than support. Folks want to see that stuff on the clock not in your living room.

Screw those guys! They are just pissed because they can't load their shotgun or make a video. I learned how to 3 gun on YouTube and forums.
