    STORING SHOT SHELLS

    Factory shot shells don't really need to be stored in a climate-controlled area. I pulled out some 12 gauge shells that have been in the garage for 20 plus years. last year and they shot fine. All my shells are stored in a file cabinet. pistol and rifle shells in the house.

    Never been able to shoot the model 12 well.

    If they weren’t so heavy I’d still be shooting one. This was my favorite trap gun. My wife’s dad was a devout trap shooter. She bought this one from an old friend of her dads for my birthday many years ago. It’s a built-up field grade. Pictures don’t do the wood justice. Wood was done by a...

    Which Barrel First For Over/Under

    I shot my 1st o/u top barrel 1st for years before I found out I was supposed to shoot the bottom barrel 1st. I switched but didn't notice any difference.

    Also, great whiskey, Dale Hollow and numerous other beautiful lakes, beautiful mountains, great weather and the friendliest hillbillies in the nation.

    Pointing to far/ not moving in on running birds.

    I think it's flush/bird shy. It may have been natural or could have been caused without you even knowing it. Maybe just raising your voice when it was chasing a bird when a puppy. Hopefully you didn't use a shock collar?? At three years old a fix may be futile. I would try using another dog with...

    Lab guys sorry but....

    I've seen three truly outstanding non flushing pheasant dogs. I was lucky enough to own 2 of those. One was a big female Wire that was very close. She hunted ground sent and was about 50/50 point or flush. One was a shorthair male that had a great nose. He would lock up on the slightest sent and...

    Lab guys sorry but....

    If I'm not mistaken, they would need dual citizenship. The only exception would be the South American dogs. They can come over all they want and get free vet visits for life.. :confused:

    O/U Oil And Grease

    Strip all factory lubes. Shoot 4 or 6 hundred rounds through it dry. Tear it back down, you'll see the wear marks. Good 90 wt. or gun grease those areas and hinge pins. It should loosen up.

    Party Hunting

    What remy says. If there is any doubt, I'll give it to the other guy. It might be the only one he gets that day.

    Lab guys sorry but....

    I had a neighbor once who had a setter and a pointer. We went hunting and my shorthair made every point and every retrieve. Long story short, he wound up with a kennel full of shorthairs that weren't any better than the dogs he had that he never trained properly! It's not the breed it's the...

    Party Hunting

    I've never liked it and have never done it. Bad manners if you ask me. Why not take 5 guys and one guy can shoot 15? Why not just do away with limits? I say if the limit is three rosters it's three rooster's period.

    Should I feel bad cutting a stock?

    Maybe if you're only going to shoot this gun. If you're going to shoot Mutiple guns, get it cut to your preferred length or you'll blow a beach ball easy shot when the butt hangs on your coat. I'm 5'8'' 190lb. All my guns are 14 1/8th.

    Should I feel bad cutting a stock?

    I never feel bad about cutting down a stock. For some reason the trend is longer stocks on some guns. One Rizzini was almost 15 inches!! My last CZ was something like 14.5. 6.5 Lbs wouldn't bother me a bit. That's about what I like in a target gun..
