I can tell you this much. Loading a shotgun while a clay is in the air would be a very stressful situation for most people. I have shot plenty of poppers that will trigger a clay target you need to bust in the air, but I have never tried to reload while the clay is in flight. it is enough stress to "get on" the clay and get your swing going after having just focused on the last popper that triggers it, and knowing that the clock is ticking and you have more poppers to go. I guess it it all just what you practice doing. :thumbsup:
