Shooting slugs designed for a smoothbore will do no harm to the gun. Your shoulder may not be so lucky.

Marinate the breast fillets in Newman's Sun Dried Tomato dressing for 3-5 hours. Use about an ounce per breast. Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to temper. Sautee one onion, a green pepper, and two cloves of chopped garlic in olive oil until the onions begin to brown, adding salt and pepper to taste. Remove most, but not all of the onions and peppers and put aside. Add 2 breasts at a time and cook them for about one minute per side. Overcooking ruins them. When all of the breasts are cooked, place them on top of the rice in a serving dish and cover them with the cooked veggies. Pour the leftover marinade into the pan and cook it down to about half of its original volume, scraping the skillet to get all the flavorful bits and pieces of caramelized onions etc. Pour the thickened mixture over the ducks and rice.

The standard is 4 + 1. Magazine extensions may be added.

I never said what they were doing was illegal, and I fully understand that it is indeed legal. My contention is that they are manipulating wild game for the sole purpose of making them easier to shoot. If it weren't for the ducks, I doubt he would be "farming" at all, and I'm sure his farm equipment wastes more grain than that of the guy making a living from the grain and not the hunting. The law is ignorant and blind to these guys. The laws were changed back in the old days when a bottomland farmer whose crops were lost due to river flooding were not allowed to even be able to shoot ducks to try and feed their families and make up for some of their losses. Now, the clubs and the likes of Paul are exploiting an exception that was created with good intentions to generate revenue for fat cats who are too lazy to get off the fat azz and go find the ducks in their natural and normal patterns. They don't even leave the water up to nature. If rains don't flood the fields, then the pumps are turned on. Some even run aerators to keep the water from freezing, keeping ducks on the northern ends of the flyways beyond the times that they would normally be pushed south by weather. All they want is to go pay their money, shoot a bunch of mallards, and take a few pictures to show what great hunters they are. Mudhen, I respect you and your opinion, but we'll just have to disagree on this one.

Try Miltie.

Easy enough. Buy the 22" and have the barrel cut to 20" and recrowned by a competent gunsmith. Should cost $75- $100 for the work.

Depsite what is said in the manual, I have found it much easier to remove the bolt handle after the full bolt assembly is out of the receiver. It does not unscrew. It pulls straight out. One trick discussed here before has been to wrap a shoestring around the handle several times and give it a yank. You may also find my SBE Cleaning Guide helpful.

Adding water to grain = adding grain to water. There is no difference. With rice, the water is an integral part of the agricultural process. With corn, barley, millet, milo, wheat, etc., it isn't and it should be just as illegal as tossing grain into a pothole to draw ducks in for easy shooting. There's an outfit in Washington state that exemplifies everything that is wrong with these practices. It's a commercial operation where so-called hunters pay big bucks to so-called guides to shoot ducks over a pond that is surrounded on all sides by barley. They sell decoys and blinds and all kinds of crap off the premise that these are the things making the difference there. They're not. I could sit out there in a blaze orange tuxedo and kill a limit of their dumbed down mallards, but they promote is a hunting experience of a lifetime. It's like shooting animals at a petting zoo. Trust me when I say that the feds are looking at these practices HARD and their days are numbered. Here's a quote from an e-mail correspondence I had with some officials last year. "I have attached a copy of our pamphlet on waterfowl baiting. My read on it is that this is not baiting but it should be. Under the "Planting" subheading the pamphlet says that FWS does not distinguish between crops planted for an agricultural practice and for those planted without such an intent... The paragraph on Wildlife Food Plots may give us some of way calling this a baited area but I am not familiar with the legal definition of a wildlife food plot to be able to make that call. I am sending this to a couple of agents for a more experienced opinion. I will let you know what I find out." And this one - " I am one of the persons who responded to your request for information on baiting ducks. The last questions you asked about how to get legislation to make such practices illegal is one I cannot answer on government email or time. If you want some ideas call me at xxx-xxx-xxxx. I might be able to help you and help the ducks."

Don't use Rem oil on anything you care about. Switch to Breakfree or another milspec CLP.

NRA is to gun laws as Jessie Jackson is to racial indifference. Neither benefits from winning their fight. They only benefit from the fight never ending.

The pattern on factory Novas is the Weaver 423M. If you buy a set of those you can use them as the pattern. The receiver isn't plastic. Blue loctite.

I'd go with the .300 if elk are a possibility. The .270 will kill elk, but the .300 will a bit more efficient at it.

It will take some time. I went from a Remington 870 to the SBEII, and I had a similar experience to begin with. With American shotguns, you typically cover the target with the end of the barrel. European guns sight differently, showing the full target just above the beads, with some rib showing as well. Once you become accustomed to it, you'll like the sighting method better than what you're used to doing. The Benelli is also adjustable for cast and drop to help you fine tune the gun for your build and shooting style. The blind shoulder and sight test can help with making the adjustments. With an empty and safe gun, look at the target and focus on it. Close your eyes and shoulder the gun. Open your eyes and see how you're lined up. High, low, right left. Adjust and try again. The idea is to have the gun shoulder naturally into the proper shooting position. Then it's just a matter of getting a good cheek weld, acquiring the proper lead, and pulling the trigger.

Benelli dealers have them / can get them. You may also be able to buy direct from Benelli through Customer Service.

Well, in that case, allow me to answer. It is legal to shoot hens within the overall bag limit. Some people choose not to shoot them while others choose to shoot them.

Let's don't start that argument here. If it's legal, it's legal.

Step 1. Let's see that Photoshop.

Yeah, how 'bout those GPS coordinates

What size are they?

Contact information is available on this site. Whether or not they accept ideas is unclear. All I know is that it wasn't long after I Photoshopped a Comfortech stock onto a R1 rifle that the R1 Comfortech was in the works. I'm still waiting for the desert camo SBEII.

How does one "bust" into a home and then be stealthy while extinguishing light sources? After the lights are extinguished, how does Mr. Intelligent Invader find his way around a house he's never been in? In this scenario, I shoot you more than three times, because you thought you were smart.
