Since I grabbed my first over/under shotgun, I'm curious which barrel you guys shoot first. My dad's been shooting an over/under for over 30 years and has always used his top barrel first. I'll probably use my under first after reading various things online but it got me curious what the folks...

Picked up my first O/U last night and in reading through the manual it stated for the oil finished stocks to use Danish oil or Tung oil and not to use any gun oil on the wood. This gun is the first oil finished stock I've ever owned so curious how those of you with oil finished stocks clean up...

I know we all like shotguns most here but my dad has a 1952 Marlin 336 RC .35 REM for sale. I have an idea of value on it using Gun Broker and True Gun Value, he's thinking $800 is fair given what others have sold for in auctions. He has gotten a couple trade in offers from shops local but...

Pulled the trigger today on ordering my first over under. I have a 20 gauge Citori 725 Feather on order through Scheels that's supposed to be here in about a week and would like some shell recommendations. The gun can shoot 2.75 or 3 inchers, anyone see much difference that shoots a 20? I use...

Re-posting a news article I shared over on the Minnesota forum about a dog who died while at a trainer. As I mentioned on the other thread, not looking to bash the trainer personally or professionally as I don't know the full story or what exactly happened, just posting for awareness...

Anyone else hear about this? Just saw it on the local news last night. Obviously not looking to bash anyone who knows the trainer personally or professionally, but seems like a bad deal all around. https://www.fox9.com/news/minnesota-kennel-owner-charged-after-dog-dies-during-training

Just shipped off my Browning Maxus to Browning today to have the Dura Touch coating repaired. No clue how long it will take, fingers crossed I get it back before turkey season in April as that's my primary turkey gun. Anyone here have to send theirs into Browning before? How did the work turn...

How was everyone's opener? Any reports? I didn't get out for the opener but am heading out for 5 days starting Thursday morning.

Got the new issue of the Minnesota Prairie Chicken Society newsletter this morning and read about an interesting survey they're doing. Just passing along for anyone hunting prairie chickens or sharp tails up in the NW part of the state.

I got drawn in the chicken lottery again so I'll be heading up to prairie chicken country in a few weeks. Anyone else here get picked this year?

Wondering how many of you guys that used to run the Alpha 100s have upgraded to the 200/300s? I see Garmin just came out with the 300 recently and am considering an upgrade as I like the sounds of a few features but trying to decide if those features warrant the cost. Anyone upgrade and happy...

Anyone have any tips or places to look at for lodging around the Regent/Hettinger area? There doesn't seem to be a lot of options in the area (outside of a castle themed hotel in Regent, what's up with that?). Considering a trip there this fall and not seeing a ton of options and curious where...

Hey All, Does anyone know if ND publishes the survey they do each year? I can seem to only find the overview of the survey that Game and Fish sends out. When MN does their count each year, they publish the actual survey with maps and graphs, showing some extra information and was hoping ND does...

Anyone here have either a drawer system for their trucks (Decked, TruckVault or DIY) or a Leer Locker/Cap Pack? Been debating purchasing one or making a DIY drawer system and I'm curious if you think it was worth it or is it an idea that's good on paper that wasn't needed?

Hey Everyone, My female is going to be having a litter due in June. If you or anyone you know are looking for a pup, feel free to reach out here if interested. A link to the pairing details and my contact information can be found here...

For those of you that have had litters in the past, where do you usually advertise them? I'm planning on my dog having a litter this spring/summer and was just curious how everyone goes about advertising it so you get enough exposure to not end up with leftover pups. Thanks!

Does anyone here have any experience with their dogs and liver cancer? My oldest dog was diagnosed with liver cancer a couple weeks back and I'm struggling with knowing when the right time is to let her go. My vet said she has probably 3 months left. She'd have 9-12 months if I looked into...

With just a few days until the 2022 opener I wanted to start a thread. Post all your pictures and stories. The weather this weekend is looking good for the opener. Anyone have a recent crop report? I won't be getting out for the opener this year. My group decided to skip the opener and go the...

Have a question for all of you new A5 shooters on here. This weekend I shot my brand new A5 sweet sixteen and it appears to have some issues out of the box. I loaded it up with some federal game loads, and tried to cycle the gun through 3 shells. It shot once and then failed to eject the shell...
