I went to the Grand in Sparta, Illinois a couple weeks ago. Browning always has a store there to show their guns to the public. I went in looking for the new " sweet 16".
Not there. They on ... |

It is nice to finally see a modern 16 gauge automatic. I thought that might not happen in my life time. Am I going to get one? Probably not. I'm at a point in life where I do very little hunting, at l ... |

This seems to be a common problem for 16 gauge Citori's. This subject has come up on this site for years. The problem mainly stems from the lower pin being shorter than the top pin. When some shells h ... |

I've reloaded a lot of Nobel hulls. I treat them the same as the Winchester straight wall polyform hull. If you cut the hull from the base, you will notice the tube is about the same diameter as the W ... |

I've thrown plenty of lead at ducks and geese in my lifetime, using both 12 and 16 gauge. I don't think you will ever come up with anything as lethal as lead. If using the 12 ga, I used 1 1/4 oz at 13 ... |

I'd have to agree with Spr310. All my uncles and my dad used a 12 ga. Most everyone used a 12. Usually the kids got a 410 to start with and got something a little bigger later. Several of us "kid ... |

I'll be like a politician and say I agree with every thing said so far. I own a few shotguns, a 12, three 20's and a 16 ga citori. You can't go wrong with a Citori 16. I like it better than my 20 ga C ... |

I just checked the price of lead shot at a wholesale place, $38.50. At that cost and the price of primers, it hardly pays to reload. I just bought a case of 16 ga Federal 1oz for $68 plus tax. 12's an ... |

Dave, you are right. We have a lot of "Big Head" carp that jump as the boat goes by. It seems that it is the vibration from the motor that causes them to jump. I don't think its legal to sho ... |
