This one’s over here in ND, last I heard they were charging 800 a pup, I’ve been around the stud dog the last few years, super talented dog. He’s an AKC Master hunter transitioning to field trials. Both dogs have solid pedigrees and health clearances.

There’s no way to prove this one, I don’t believe it could be anymore of a stressor than guys running dogs on birds for half the summer, roosters will push hens off of limited food sources, I’d say keep shooting roosters as long as you can. Carry over hens are key to the next years bird numbers.
Great report exactly what I wanted to hear, I’m slowing down a little I need shit that works at this point in my life, my multi tasking skills suck, when I’m out there hunting with 2 dogs I sure am glad no one’s videotaping.
I seem to shoot Berettas better than Brownings except for my double auto, the picturess don’t do the engraving justice, it kind of bums me out the younger generation really don’t strive for a Browning or Beretta, kids are all crazy for the Turkish guns these days it seems.
I’ve got one and believe it to be somewhat of a rare bird, anyone have an idea what it might sell for. I can’t hit the broad side of a barn with it, Im not a collector so probably going to move it down the road. I suck at Gunbroker analytics.
I was bored between driveway shoveling and ordered the final rise summit, Im really excited to give it a whirl, my Beretta vest is a pos, have you ordered any additional pouches/gizmos?
The US Border Patrol created a video documenting a 700 that would ghost fire, plenty of better rifles out there. Remember that commercial that showed an Italian flag and some American dude toting old glory with his Remington ha ha, give me that Italian gun every day of the week.
As much as it hurts me to say this my Beretta upland vest is a piece of junk, my old gamehide is a better vest. Anyway leaning towards a Final Rise Summit vest but can’t find a shootout with the aforementioned brands, Chief Upland, Marsupial gear etc, do I really need a modular upland hunting...
I’d sure give the Beretta XPlorer a hard look, I thought the kick off was a gimmick but holy is that thing slick. Have a Franchi, had a Browning Maxxus, SX3, if you can get used to the safety I think the Beretta is the best.
A lot of these places are word of mouth, they are the bottom of the barrel for pay hunting so it can be good or you can feel ripped off, I think they would be better than public but I’ve never freelanced public lands in SD. Hopefully you got some messages about places to consider.
Most of the releasing is done by private Sportsman groups, one of them releases pregnant hens, others throw them out as adults in the fall, the state doesn’t that I know of, when they used to they had leg bands.
Thank you, unfortunately that wood is called extra grain from Beretta, totally fake achieved by burning figure into the wood with a laser. Still the A400 has been a good gun for me.
