Can't seem to hit crossing targets consistently with my Beretta A300

Just started sporting clays a few months ago. I'm using a Beretta A300 with a modified choke and Federal Top Gun 7.5 shot. On true crossing targets, especially from stations 3 and 4, I keep missing behind. I've tried swinging through and pulling away, but nothing feels right.

Hey, welcome to the sport! That's a super common issue when you're starting out. With true crossers, try focusing on the target's front edge instead of the whole clay - that'll help you see the lead better. For those stations, I'd actually suggest a more open choke like improved cylinder, especially with 7.5s at 30-35 yards. What's your foot position like on those shots? Sometimes just opening up your stance toward where the target's going can make the swing feel more natural.
