Going to be introducing my wife to shooting in the next few days. She is a very petite lady, her first shooting experience will be with a .22 rifle. Having said this she wants to learn to shoot trap/skeet. I believe the only comfortable gauge for her would be .410. Don't know without a doubt yet of that, yet fairly certain. Has anyone ever used this gauge for it? I have always used a 12 gauge, while some friends had shot 20s. Man behind the counter of the gunstore where said firearms will be purchased, claimed he knew a lot of people who did, and were successful in doing so. If this is not the case, I will work her up for a while with the .410 recoil, then introduce her slowly to the 20 gauge with recoil pads. I have my eye on a Stoger Condor youth model O/U for her. Any thoughts, or experience would be appreciated...
