Skeets follow a parabolic trajectory. This makes it much easier to shoot them, as you can basically time it manually. Drones on the other hand, once they become more intelligent, should be able to fly in a random pattern, to avoid incoming projectiles fired against it.

Yes but shotguns fire slow rounds. With tons of drop. Heavy slugs or buck shot. Or slow bird shot. Garbage selection but that's what makes the sport fun and challenging. A rifle round like a Nosler 26 will travel a quarter mile with no drop. Fired out of a long barrel, with a good rifling twist, accuracy is ridiculously good. There are plenty of high powered rounds that don't have to be fired with nearly as much prediction necessary in skeet -- because theyll be traveling at 4k feet per second. If the drone is within a mile..its a piece of cake.
