Hastings Barrels

Post by Brass Rat » Wed Jan 05, 2011 10:28 pm

Is anyone familier with Hastings Barrels?

I just bought a Remington 1100 that has one on it. I don't know a lot about choke tubes and I am wondering what type it takes. It has a full tube in it.

Found a place online called Carlson's Choke Tubes that stocks the Hastings II choke tubes.

I'm gonna try. Less than 2 years ago I didn't own a shotgun now I have 3 of them.

This is Bob's favorite.

I'm sure it must just be that the camera is real close to the barrel......but that thing looks like it has a bore large enough to drop a tennis ball down into it.. :D

12ga Mossberg 500 18 1/2" barrel. Uncle Mikes sling swivels.

3" 000 buck is brutal out of this thing, on both ends.

Well, Bob and I were planning on going to a small range about 30 minutes from here and bust a few clays today. Neither of us is all that good at bustin um so it would probably be an exercise in futility trying today with the 14-30 mph gusting wind we have today in advance of a front moving through.

The high was 60 yesterday and is supposed to be 41 today.
