Sorry for your loss.

Picked up one of these today. https://www.brownells.com/tools-cleaning/gun-tools/shotgun-tools/brass-choke-gauge/ I’ve never used one before but it gave me some interesting results. According to this tool, by Marlin Model 90 16 ga has F over IM chokes. My IM Trulock in my 20 ga is really a...

I feel that way about my son. I’m not as altruistic with my usual hunting crew. If the birds are flying and I’m out with the usual hunting crew, I want them to be successful but I’m not happy if I don’t get a few. I don’t have to get the most and I really don’t need to get more than one or two.

Bought one for $850 last year. I believe its the venture model. I thought it was a citori when I saw it on the shelf. Nice 12 ga. he had a 20 and sold it just a day or two before I was there.

A choke won’t change the 60/40 patterning. However, you can change shims in the stock to help lower point of impact to get the 60 a little lower and function more like a 50/50.

Man, that could be a thread of its own. I worry about a lot of our outdoor activities and the direction they are going these days.

That’s great stuff!

That’s the question. What do you think we choose most commonly? Are we using too much or too little choke?

I have been looking at pudelpointers for some of this and they don’t shed much but you’d have to find one on the small end.

Looking forward to it.

I’ve given it some serious thought. Deer hunting just doesn’t have the romance for me that it used to. I like to shoot my recurves, so I’ll still hunt with those but if it were up to me, I’d hunt coyotes and birds only. We just don’t have any birds here anymore. I could put my money into some...

Nice!!

My new A5 Sweet Sixteen is the only long gun I’ve bought without handling and it was a good call. I’ve bought some pistols without handling and regret some of those buys and love some others. But I do think you need to handle one. I wanted the lightning version but couldn’t find one. I have...

I like to keep things simple. My brother has a Mossberg 500 in the old school camo. I love that style of camo. All that new stuff is not something I like. So all black is better for me.

Not a fan of the camo. They also had some issues with their camo versions getting sticky and had to recall some of them. If I get one that’s not wood, I want all black.
