Shooting a Browning Citori Sporting Clay Special Edition,28" barrels,ported.
A person has been telling me it reports louder than any other gun when on a squad.He thought I was shooting HOT loads.(18.7 grn, grn dot. 1 oz loads)
I did have 1 puller think I was shooting Hot loads in winter league,I showed him the Nitros I was shooting,that ended that.
Now,today I was shooting a Meat shoot(50 shells),decided to use factory shells again.
In between rounds the fella at the club that is concerned with my loads,comes up to me with five shells wanting me to try,( his reloads I guess)I show him the factory shells,he says ,Oh,never mind.After I was done,I asked him how they sounded,he said,only once were they loud( when I shot walmart federals).Seems to me he fudged a little there,he wouldn't of come up with the five shells if he didn't want to prove a point in my opinion.
Now,the question,Does anyone have any idea why my gun seems so loud?I don't want to have to keep shooting factory shells because someone will think I'm shooting HOT loads otherwise.
I weigh my loads 2-3 times per box,a little anal I know,but I'd rather error on the side of caution and be safe.
