Goose doesnt believe in dog training, he said it is for stupid dogs, i dont think he would want to use a bird live or dead.

You pushed him off the dock, which likely was a traumatic experience and now he doesn't trust the water. Good luck with that one

Yeah i honestly have no idea why they do it, i noticed it when a guy on Facebook was complaining because he bought dove loads and didnt notice they were 3" until they wouldn't cycle in his 2.75" gun. I reload the same payload in 2.75" at 125fps faster speed so it isnt a fitment issue.

Hevishot sells a 3" dove load. Its only 3/4oz of shot but in a 3" hull at 1300fps for some reason. Tell someone you are shooting 3" shells for dove and theyll tell you how overkill it is, while they shoot even more shot in their 2.75"

1 1/4 20ga 1300fps are unsafe, but 1 1/4 12ga 1330fps are great? This sounds like something our government came up with 😆

Shot string negative effects were debunked 50 years ago. Even a 15 foot shot string makes it through the bird in a fraction of a second. Its just math, but was debunked by using a Chevy van pulling a trailer with a pattern board on it back in the day 😉

Gucci means "good" things these days to anyone under 40

What gauge are you loading for? Another member and I are each going to work on 20ga this off season and keep in touch. I can keep you in the loop also regarding my data and pattern/penetration tests as well if you are doing 20.

I have always said there is no point in limiting yourself shooting subpar or budget ammo. Ive had honest talks with guys who say they WILL NOT pay more than $10/box for ammo (this was before covid). They also shoot a $2500 o/u, have professionally trained pointers that cost who knows how much...

I bet it works very well for those "medium" sized birds. Theres nothing wrong with hevi-shot ammo, its just their misleading marketing and outrageous prices that turn me off. For years i shot hevi-steel 12ga for 12.99/box for goose hunting and they were absolutely quality shells, now they are...

Those are really good shells. I shot some ducks with them and they worked well. I got a box cheap and liked them, but would not pay the asking price for them personally. Just have to count them as steel shot, theres only 20 bismuth pellets in the 1oz 3s.

They purchase the photos from photographers, there is a minimum quality requirement to be used in print and most hunters dont have that quality of equipment. The picture in question, i would say it was probably taken with say a 600m prime lens on a full frame mirrorless camera, they want at...

Im going to guess that is the extreme minority these days. All the kids ive been around recently want to kill a bunch of birds or start shooting corn cobs otherwise its no fun and they want to go home. They can just play video games where they get the instant success I was the same as you

I have a briley 20ga invector plus extended ported blued LM for sale if you are interested. $50. Has two boxes of shells through it. Send me a PM if you want pics

Please do open them up! I am very interested to see if they are the same.

If you think that is bad, they also change the wad and shot weight to use what is currently available. There was a post on Facebook where a guy asked why his 12ga 1 1/4 had 1 3/8 of shot in them. The owner came on and said it is not possible, the wad won't hold that. The customer posted pics on...

I shoot 1oz 5s or 6s for pheasant sometimes, but I have found myself shooting more and more 3" 1 1/4 5s. Not that i think you NEED the extra pellets, but it certainly doesn't hurt anything and they arent any worse on recoil when adrenaline is pumping. Golden pheasant is my factory shell of...

You can likely go to any major sporting goods store and find the slower shells. Just buy 2.75" instead of 3". I shot 2.75" 1 1/8 1400fps shells for years, duck hunting. Just off the top of my head Rio makes 2.75" at 1375, federal is 1500, nitro steel is 1400.

And bismuth is inferior to lead, lead is inferior to hevishot, and hevishot is inferior to TSS. Its just physics. I mean we can go as high as you want.. TSS is inferior to uranium. Its not anything new that each shot type is inferior to another, thats where the common sense and research is...

PF has donated to or straight up purchased almost every public hunting area I have visited in Iowa. They just agreed to purchase a new chunk locally to me last month, and are asking other non prof to help donate to the purchase. It will then be purchased and donated to the county for public...
