Onceagain Matt here we go..you know what happens when one assumes....

NO ONE HAS SHOULDERS OF CONCRETE.
No, but in this case it was only 120 lbs of bench rest......LOL

Appears Courtesy of "Field & Stream Magazine"(08-01-2001)

Pennsylvanian Randy Fritz kowns as much about taming slugs as anyone. Fritz builds the very accurate Tar-Hunt semicustom bolt action slug guns and consults for Lightfield (732-462-9200; for Tar-Hunt, call 570-784-6368).

HE HAS SHOT AS MANY AS A 1,000 SLUGS IN A DAY

(from a recoil-absorbing 120-pound bench gun) when testing a new lot of Lightfields.

ORIGINAL: uncle matt

Beings how you're in the quoting mood jc.....................

jcchartboy:
a man who has actual test shot thousands..yes thousands of lightfields in a single day...
Whoa! Hold on there! That came so quick I didn't have time to pull my waders all the way up.

Let's see here, I'll try some math..........

figuring its dark for about 9 hours a day, thats............
24 hours - 9 hours = 15 hours

and at some time during the 15 hour day a guys gotta eat and well, ya know..........
15 hours - 2 hours = 13 hours

each hour consists of 60 minutes each...............
13 hours X 60 minutes = 780 minutes

I believe "thousands means more than a single thousand so on the low side say 2000...
2000 divided by 780 = 2.564102564 shots fired per minute
(a shot every 23.4 seconds)

The barrel(s) would be glowing!

NO ONE HAS SHOULDERS OF CONCRETE.

Make sure I get proper credit for my quotes.
