    Never tried but I would think that is quite tricky. The shot strings out when it leaves the barrel and there is also the wad so getting repeatable results would seem problematic. I'm guessing but I suspect that the radar types would be the way to go.

    Exactly! We tried an F! and the results were all over the place. Just wondered if anyone had the answer.
