    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    I too prefer the Citori now. You're right the constant checking of the bolt is a buzz kill. My partner bought me a 28 ga silver pigeon w/ 28" barrels which is my goto quail gun. My Citori is a 20 ga with 26" barrels which i like a lot but not as well as the silver pigeon. I bought the new...

    Trailer grease

    Nothing wrong with a dog in the crate. Much safer for all I believe, especially in an accident, unless of course your dog wears his seat belt.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    All Monte's are 4+1. To each his own on the 2 piece receiver. I like my shotguns tight, nothing loose.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    I am a big fan of the Monte. I don't know why they put a 2 piece on the receiver on the Ethos. They hardly ever get dirty, so I think the 2 piece is unnecessary. I have not had my new Monte click yet. I still like my old Monte, but the click is irritating. I guess if you call walking thru...

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    The bolt backs off slightly and you go to shoot and it just clicks. I never had it do that for 15 years and then it did it a few times. Very frustrating when it happens. The new Benellis are supposed to not do that. My new Monte has not done it. The older ones could back off a little from...

    ISO dog boot recommendations

    I have had one dog throw a homemade boot in the last 3 years and I lost about $2 so no big deal. The problem was my older dog had bigger feet than the younger dog and I forgot the younger dog's boots at home.

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    I have a 20 year old Monte 20 and it was my go to gun forever. I never had a problem with it until about 5 years ago and then I had the click happen on several quail flushes. It is terrible when that happens on a bird, especially if you aren't seeing many birds. The new Monte and Ethos have...

    ISO dog boot recommendations

    I think i have posted this before, but go to youtube and search for how to boot a dog. The best way in my opinion is to make your own out of motorcycle tire tubes. They are cheap, last forever, and offer the best protection. I can boot a dog's front feet in less than 5 minutes. The "store...

    Montefeltro or Ethos ?

    I had the Ethos and sold it because I did not like the 2 piece on the receiver-it was loose, it was 20ga. I sold it and bought the new Monte in 12 ga for the Chukar hills-a little more power. Prefer O/U, but climbing after Chukar it is good to have at least 3 shells and more knock down power...

    Heartworm

    TGM, Thanks for the post. I certainly don’t want to cause retinal damage to any of my dogs. I’m assuming you’re a veterinarian. If so, have you seen the problem/problems associated with ivermectin? My oldest dog is 10 years old and as far as I can tell his vision is as good as it has ever been...

    Let's see pics of your bird hunting truck or SUV set up!

    Ghetto/zombie rig. Insulated and a nice above ground mattress. I spent 14 nights straight in it and was comfortable. Took showers at truck stops and campgrounds.

    20 gauge ammo for quail

    I like 6’s for all quail. Less cripples, not shot up as bad as smaller shot, and around 1,300 fps. I’ve found the blues are tougher than bobs and gambles.
