    O/U Oil And Grease

    I always put a light film of high quality grease on the hinge or truncheons, whichever you have AND on the rounded part of the receiver where it mates with the forearm. I’ve seen more than one Browning Citori gauld in that area during high volume shooting!

    Preferred 20 Gauge Shell

    I think I paid less than $20 per box for the Hevi Hammer that I bought for my wife last fall, six boxes will last her the rest of her life! I did find them on sale.

    Preferred 20 Gauge Shell

    I bought some of the Hevi Hammer 3" 20 ga for my wife for hunting in SD. These. It is easier to give her just one shell to hunt everything and everywhere than to try to make sure she didn't have lead in a place where she shouldn't. They seemed to work really well for her from her Franchi...

    Preferred 20 Gauge Shell

    I think Briley chokes are a step up from factory chokes but I’m not a fan of ported chokes, especially when I’m off to the side of someone shooting them.

    Preferred 20 Gauge Shell

    Since you ordered your shotgun from Scheels you might consider. These. They are made by Fiocchi and I have had good luck with them in 20 gauge. I’m sure your Scheels store will have some in stock.

    Should I feel bad cutting a stock?

    I would say buy it and shoot it. 5/16" is not much additional lenght and while a 15" LOP is my prescribed lenght, I have a 15 1/2" that I shoot really well! I doubt that you will even noyive that additional length.

    Something like this could happen to any of us and he was only 1/2 mile from his truck. https://www.cbsnews.com/minnesota/news/70-year-old-injured-hunter-crawls-for-16-hours-to-find-help/

    Nebraska Legislature Considers Raiding Game Fund

    I received one of the canned emails back from Erdman telling me that if I wanted a state senator to pay attention I should craft my own email instead of using one filled with grammatical errors. He said the only way the G&P would get better was by taking money from them so they would have to...

    Tools?

    I carry an InReach device, Leatherman multi tool, Felco cutters, zip ties for traps, short length of paracord, CAT tourniquet, blood stopper gauze and other first aid products in a small zippered tool bag. I have been involved in EMS for over 40 years and just an observation for those who say...

    Chicken fried.

    My first wife made pheasant nuggets for our kids. She cut the breast into 1/2” pieces, soaked them in milk and egg, breaded them with cracker crumbs and fried them up. The kids would gorge themselves until there were no more left.

    Pheasant Hunting

    I have a soft spot for any gray muzzled hunting dog regardless of the breed. Here is a pic with three of ours, now sadly all departed on the last day that I hunted them all. They were pissed when I made them quit, you can see they aren’t happy and they suffered the next day but their hearts...

    Gear That Lasted At Least A Decade?

    A DeerCreek Houndsman dog box that has storage on top. Had it since 2006 and it’s as good as when I bought it. It’s been in my pickup from September 1 until February 1 every year since I bought it. Two pair of Danner, Made in the USA boots. Still going strong for 15+ years Fausti DEA Roundbody...

    How many shells?

    I haven’t hunted quail for so long that I don’t even remember how many I carried but I’m guessing it was about 25 and I have needed ALL of them! Now I carry 8-10 for pheasant. There is an elastic band that holds four in my WingWorks vest that I try to keep full and then 4-6 more and the two in...

    Worst things that happened while hunting ?

    When you push the SOS button on an InReach it contacts the ERCC through the Iridium satellite network. The ERCC is staffed 24 hours a day. They will activate the local emergency services for the area you are in. In my case it would have been the local 911 dispatch center which here in...
