    20 gauge Browning Citori Grade 6--28"--current values?

    I have an acquaintance who has the above for sale---very clean with box and factory chokes...I've seen photos; real nice, I've met the guy and bought from him before (individual, not a dealer). I'd say original condition 97-98%. What are these selling for now? I've looked on Guns...

    Remington 1100 Sporting 12 gauge #25315

    I'm looking at one of these at a local shop---beautiful wood, brand new $1,299. I would use it primarily for trap. Looking for opinions from anyone who may have this specific model---do you use yours for trap? Length of pull is stated at 14" but the one I'm looking at seems longer; I see space...

    Your Experience With This?

    I keep getting pop-up ads on my computer for Upland Inn Hunts, out of Greensburg, Kansas. I've never hunted in Kansas and the daily fee, which appears to be all-inclusive,at $530/ day is not cheap. What attracts me is the "12,000 acres of CRP fields and "wild pheasants". I'd appreciate any...

    Planning a hunt just west of there in early November, just wondering how this summer has treated the birds. Adequate rainfall, decent hatch, good insect numbers, etc.? Any first hand information greatly appreciated, thanks.

    Beretta A400 20 gauge extreme+

    I sold my 20 gauge Benelli SBE 3 and am thinking seriously about getting the Beretta A400 Extreme in 20 gauge. I figure a bit more weight, a bit less recoil, easier to keep it moving once I start to swing it. Also, the SBE 3 shot very noticeably high. I'm hoping the A400 will shoot more toward...

    Shotshell Ammo Prices

    I've been watching trends in ammo availability and pricing in my sector of the Midwest, and it's frustrating to see prices on some ammunition (like .223/5,56 and 9mm) start to come down--example 124 grain 9mm can be had for $14.99 if one shops around---but 12 and 20 gauge target shells are still...

    Public Land/Walk In guide for South Dakota

    I purchased the excellent Iowa Sportsman's Atlas last year and found it informative and easy to use. I'd like to buy a similar atlas for South Dakota--a book- type, something showing the National Grasslands, walk-in areas, sstae owned public hunting areas, etc.-- not something online. Where can...

    Bad Weather, Good Trip!

    My son and I have hunted birds "out west" for almost 20 years, and the weather, for the most part, has been favorable for the majority of those trips. But this last one was an exception. Our first day of hunting was in East Central Illinois, on Saturday November 5. Those of you who hunted in...

    Winchester-Parker Reproduction 12 gauge

    At a gun show today, I spotted a 12 gauge DHE Parker Reproduction that was really clean; hardly used in fact. It had a single trigger with a pistol grip, with 26" barrels choked Q1 and Q2. It came with the case and case cover, snap caps etc. The wood was good with some figure and it was all...

    Hunted Iowa and South Dakota

    Well, I'll probably catch some hell for this but here goes: My son and I took our yearly trip out West from 11/6 to 11/12. First "stop"--Scheels in Iowa City. Looking for 20 gauge target ammo and man did they have it! Stacks of CASES of Remington 7/8 ounce #8's in 20 gauge. I'd been looking for...

    Beretta A400 20 gauge extreme

    Has anyone purchased the 20 gauge camo version of this gun? If so, how do you like it? I'm thinking of getting one with the "kick off" feature to lessen the recoil. Would appreciate feedback from any owners of the 20, or 12 gauge for that matter.

    Luckier Than Usual

    Got lucky this evening and won a Pheasants Forever Sponsor gun--a CZ 1012 Bronze 12 gauge semi auto. made in Turkey by Huuglu. I didn't get much chance to handle it, got to do the paperwork and I can pick it up Tuesday. Anyone have one of these guns? I don't know much about them but believe...

    Al Gadoury's 6X Outfitters

    I have never hunted gamebirds in Montana but have seen this business's ads in the past. The bird hunts are based out of Lewistown and the outfitter advertises Sharptails, Hungarian Partridge and pheasants; it seems they also offer trout fishing. Are there enough birds in the Lewistown area at...
