Clay and Skeet Shooting Essentials – Spring 2023

March 10, 2023 | 0 Comments

Spring is just a few weeks away! And with temperatures starting to rise (here in Texas anyway) and nature starting to stir, it’s a great time to start thinking of ways to enjoy the outdoors. One of our favorite ways to do that here at GrabAGun is skeet shooting and sporting clays. It’s a great way to enjoy the outdoors, hone your shooting skills, and enjoy some competition. With that in mind, we’ll be covering some of our must-haves for clay and skeet shooting, so that you can be ready to start shooting this spring!

While there are a lot of optional supplies and accessories that you can use while participating in skeet or clay shooting, we’re going to be focusing on the basics you need to compete. We’ll be looking at shotguns, ammo, and additional accessories to help give you good options to start. Whether you’re starting out or looking to upgrade your setup, there’s something in this article for everyone! Keep reading to see our picks for each of the categories.

Shotguns

The single most important piece needed for skeet shooting, as well as trap and sporting clays, is your shotgun. While any shotgun can technically be used to shoot, it’s best to have a shotgun that’s built for competitive shooting to help you out. Skeet shotguns usually feature longer barrels for greater accuracy at range and a capacity of at least 2-rounds for doubles (where two targets are released simultaneously). Many of them also feature adjustable combs, allowing the shooter to customize the configuration of the shotgun to fit them best. With this in mind, we’ll take a look at some of our favorite shotguns for competitive shooting.

Winchester SXP Trap Compact 20 GA

The Winchester SXP Trap Compact is a great, affordable entry-level shotgun for competitive shooting. It features a more compact build and is chambered in 20 gauge, making it easier to handle for beginners and smaller shooters.

The SXP’s aluminum receiver and hardwood stock provide a durable foundation that you can trust. Additional features include a front fiber optic sight, ivory bead mid-sight, a drop-out trigger group for easy cleaning, and chrome plating on many of the components to protect them and prevent wear and tear. It also includes several chokes. Overall, this Winchester shotgun provides the quality and performance you can trust in competition without breaking the bank.
