Other than the normal "slight angle towards the ocean, center the gun over the hole" suggestions the only thing that my relatives could tell me was that they used to break a bunch too and it was all merely practice.

Dinner last night was clams in garlic butter microwaved for 5 minutes in a covered casserole dish. DAMN that was good. Now I need to go to Costco and get some of that Bear Valley instant potato soup mix for a good chowder base. I may have to go get a real, honest-to-goodness, heavy duty clam gun. Does that mean I can participate in the "packin'" thread when I get one?
