What fun, what fun

Today I shot a limit with a Rem 3200 IC/Mod and #6 shot. They seem to have heavier feathers and were staying at 50+ yards BIG DOVES

Yes, Dave, lots of stuff and you should hear the gun room chatter. English, French, Dutch, Norwegian, Japanese, Russian, Italian, Spanish, German etc, etc

Hey all, kind of a crappy day on Saturday, it started off with rain and ended up with wind! Managed to get out for a hour or so, saw birds, but spooky in this wind (20mph). Did manage one however, so not all was lost.

I used my 12b H&H Royal today.

Best,

Greg

It's just a little "no name" Belgium gun I picked up off the Simpson site. Just under 6 lbs with 31 inch barrels. Not your typical woodcock gun Laughing but she works for me.
