love it, but it shoots high for me....
when I start back w/a double gun, it will be a straight-stock, double trigger splinter-fore-end SXS, probably in 28ga.
don't care for o/u's
see ya in a few days 
I know where that oak tree is.... |
Mines 2 years older that me. Made in 1947. Actually, you are right about 1 thing. I may be shooting my SxS this year. I am planning on getting a quail lease in Brady this year and I only shoot quail with my SxS. Forgot that I need to practice with it. Not much on 28ga. I would shoot 28ga, but the shells are too damn high and I'm cheap. Usually shoot 20ga, but the SxS is 12ga. Will probably load 7/8 12ga AA's this year.

Glad you found a quail lease. Everything here that I've found is tied up in year round leases.
Dove are looking good this year. Weekend rains will probably have them scattered by Monday.  |

couldn't rain enuff...
local outfitters here plant sunflowers to ripen about now...(irrigated)
perhaps yall could get w someone around Walls or Veribest and sweeten up a few acres...legal an' all.
they plant about Apr. IIRC.
doves get stupid on sunflowers.
so we get beer and shotguns ...

Howdy!
If you need help reducing that over abundance of white-wings, I'd be happy to help and provide the Lone Star (liked that antique rod a lot btw).
The public areas South of San Antonio haven't been very productive for me, but it beats nothing. |
