What about loads like Black Cloud in a newer S16?

What non toxic shoots best? I have only shot lead and shot lead well. Next year will I'd like to give the gun a chance at waterfowl. I know availability of rounds is at a premium. Just wondering what you have found to shoot the best, and what choke

Great info guys!! Much appreciated!

They live somewhere between De Smet and Watertown. It's on my girl friends side. They don't hunt or for that matter don't do much of anything lol

Is there much private land opportunity in Watertown? I read a lot about "knocking on doors" or "pay by the gun"

Thank you, I guess Watertown would be my base and I'd travel to hunt from there within reason

True lol never been to the area. Only been to SD once and it was in Redfield hunting was ehhhhhhh there few years back but I can't really say I know what I'm doing lol

We may be passing through that region in the fall to visit family and I'm just wondering how the public land hunting is in that area? Is there a lot of public opportunity to bag birds? Just wondering if it's worth driving out with the dogs or leave the dogs at home and just fly out for the...

I do treat both my labs vest preseason and during season with permethrin. I have never applied it directly to their coat though. The wife has a spray she makes with cedar oil, lemongrass, witch hazel, citronella, peppermint, geranium. I know when she applies it to them before her daily walk in...

We use Bravecto except for the winter months when there is snow on the ground. Spring and fall seem to be the worst seasons for ticks in the northeast. I try to limit use of the medicine during winter unless we are having a real mild winter. This indeed is poison that we are introducing into our...

I find it interesting on how the gun feels different to so many. I have the 28" barrel and I put all the butt stock spacers in too

I did not know that. I don't understand why that would be.........interesting

A5 28" here. I have had very good luck with the gun. You will pay more for ammo if you can find it. Light gun that travels nicely in the field. The browning loads shoot nice through the gun. I have also shot Federal and Fiocchi through he gun in 5's and 6's. For the guys that are cutting the...

Is this a 26" or 28" barrel?? My Franchi had a 26" barrel and for whatever reason I had almost the exact problem. I purchased a Franchi with a 28" barrel and the problem went away. I also have a A5 S16 28" and I hit everything with that. Some have told me barrel length should not matter, but I...

Thank you very much for the info and honesty guys. We made the drive from Mass to WI back in the spring to pick up our new pup. My 6 year old lab was from the same breeder. The area in my opinion was gorgeous compared to Mass. We have state planted birds that are simply owl, hawk, and coyote...

Hey guys looking for some advise. Both of my labs are from a breeder in northern WI. Planning a 2022 trip west and want to hunt my way out and back. Hoping to do a 2-3 week round trip. My question is does WI have a population of native pheasant? I know grouse is big up north but I'm thinking of...

Good morning, I'm sorry the gun sold on Saturday. Thank you

Sorry I did not realize pics were taken down.

Yes, that is what I ended up doing. I found some Browning loads cheap. I like to support the local shops but most of them have next to nothing on the shelf. Never seen a season start like this with limited ammo availability

Good morning, yes I will send pics today.
