K-80 Sporting

Krieghoff Sporting Clays Shotguns arrived on the American shooting scene about fifteen years ago with the introduction of the 28 inch factory screw-in choke tube shotguns. These guns were immediately popular since most of the shooters were coming into sporting clays from skeet, where the 28 inch barrel dominated for more than 20 years. The rib on the first sporter was tapered-step or trap style. Shortly thereafter the 8mm rib was introduced and two years later the tapered-flat rib was produced. Presently, about 80% of all sporters are tapered-flat, due to its popularity. Over the years, Krieghoff has gone from offering only 28 inch barrels to offering 30, 32 and 34 inch barrels. 




PRO SPORT
The newest sporting clays shotgun offered by Krieghoff is the new Pro Sport model. Introduced at the 2008 Sporting Clays National, this new gun is available in 30" and 32" with titanium choke tubes, with the new higher, floating rib and higher stock.  With the higher rib, the shooter maintains a higher head position and broader sight picture. The floating rib provides the option to raise the POI (point of impact) from the factory set a 50/50 to 60/40 pattern.
