After christening the Sub 2K, I got double-secret permission from the cool RSO to shoot my Shockwave. They don't normally allow any gun without a shoulder stock (or at least a "brace") at this outdoor rifle range. He told me I had to shoot from the bench and use my bag rest. The RSOs just don't want anyone pulverizing their target frames.
The only way I could get comfortable with the gun on the bag rest and my hand on the forend, was if I stood up. So I did. I also determined that the green laser was visible on the target at 25 yards in the daylight. It was actually VERY visible. Good to go!
The POI for the first four shots were lower than the POI (right on the bullseye). But I had zeroed the laser at 15 yards previously (at an indoor range), as I recall. In any case, I simply put my POA a few inches above the bull and got better results.

Ten full-load slugs was enough! This particular range allows only slugs. And they create some sharp recoil in the Shockwave! Then I went home and had some lunch.
Mission accomplished!
PS... I sure hope Federal's Shorty slugs actually come on the market some day.
