Old Parker 2 1/2" chamber 5....Pheasants 0
Old Belgian Sweet 16 with 22" barrel 4....Pheasants 0
My St Ususge Spaniel Yasha, turned 8 yesterday. She took on state of Kansas Pheasants and was big winner. She was on fire the last two days. She really ate those birds up, half were old long tailed birds too. And her daddy didn't miss. (did take two shots on one, shot small tree with first shot)
Used the B&P #7's and 6's in the Parker
Federal high velocity #5's in the Sweet 16. Both worked great. |

Nice work!
I'm heading to northern Iowa in the morning and just might debut my Merkel 200E-16 with that same B&P load combo. I feel like carrying something light. |

I was hunting in NW Kansas, in the Norton area. I was hunting on private lands of a close friend.
My gun is a 1944 LC Smith Field grade. |

Sweet Sixteen 1...Nebraska Pheasants 1. (maybe 6, had some wild runners today)
Yasha pointed rooster this morning, had him dead to rights, missed. Man, hadn't missed a bird in three days, and wiffed on this lollipop.
I didn't miss the next point though.
Quail hunting with Parker tomorrow. |
