Suppressed Shotguns

In another life time I shot over 500 rds. of shotguns shells a day. That was the norm. in my wildest imagination I cannot imagine shooting sporting clays, live pigeon, driven birds or most field hunting of game with a suppressed shotgun. Maybe trap? Did I use ear protection yes, either custom electronic in the ear. or electronic muff. Did I feel handicapped using them? No more than my hat that kept the sun out of my eyes! Of course it might help with your follow thru.
 
I was at an event in which we were testing integrally surpressed 12s. It was quite a bit if fun doing some trap and a sporting clays course. I didn't feel hindered at all, just needed to get adjusted to the particular model I used. I am typically an o/u guy, but that surpressed 12 was neat. Can certainly see the value in a slug gun only jurisdiction to not give any nearby antis something to complain about.

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
