Suppressed Shotguns

In another life time I shot over 500 rds. of shotguns shells a day. That was the norm. in my wildest imagination I cannot imagine shooting sporting clays, live pigeon, driven birds or most field hunting of game with a suppressed shotgun. Maybe trap? Did I use ear protection yes, either custom electronic in the ear. or electronic muff. Did I feel handicapped using them? No more than my hat that kept the sun out of my eyes! Of course it might help with your follow thru.
 
I was at an event in which we were testing integrally surpressed 12s. It was quite a bit if fun doing some trap and a sporting clays course. I didn't feel hindered at all, just needed to get adjusted to the particular model I used. I am typically an o/u guy, but that surpressed 12 was neat. Can certainly see the value in a slug gun only jurisdiction to not give any nearby antis something to complain about.

I will be looking for a set of these when my .505 is done... sadly not cashed up right now for these. :(
Need anything in trade?
Cheers,

what kind of velocity does the 140 grains list, curious how they would fit in with my current 130 gr, supply of 270s. maybe a pic of the box data listing vel. and drop. Oh and complements on that ammo belt, nice.
