  1. To Tuckers testiment.....A lot of us have cut our teeth shooting at 870 wingmaster, and looking back 20-30 years you still find that reliable shooting iron in my hands every fall. The history speaks for itself.

     

    I havent bought a new pump shotgun in forever, because I dont have to the one I have had since I was 12 works just fine.

     

    Like it or leave.....shoot what you like.

  2. In Wisconsin we are seeing lots of birds on their way back, at home for me there are quite a few Mallards pairing up, goofy noisy geese, and the mergansers. More to come for sure.

     

    No snow here......all gone thank God.

  3. My 5yr old lab breaks once and a while, when hunting with other dogs mostly.

     

    If you dog is breaking on just throw dummies, then start with staking his butt to the ground and let him hang himself a few times followed by some punishment for breaking.....then repeat till he gets it right....not all in the same day or week but keep running this drill.

     

    Once you have that down thow in some live fire or starters pistol when the dummy is thrown, and if he breaks start staking him down again. Sooner or later he or she should get it.

     

    In a hunting situation I normally tie my dog to the boat or blind the for the first few bangs of the morning, if he behaves we leave him free.

     

    This might work and easy to do.

  4. Get off your high horse, that Nova is that much better that the good old Win 1300........like tucker said know one will even know the diff when the thing goes bang in the middle of the night. I guarantee either one will work when you want them to.

  5. If you start getting into regualar shooting, do yourself a favor and look for a used MEC 600 jr with what ever charge bar size you like, bag of wads, powder, and for heavens sake a Lymans reloading manual.

     

    Its fun, inexpensive, and long term will save you a few bucks over the cost of cheap low end factory ammo.

  6. Thats a shame your Maxus gave you so much grief, lets see if Browning can keep you happy.

     

    I have a SX2, and now after a couple of seasons am seeing the duratouch start to peel off so I will try to send the stock back and see if I can make a warranty issue out of it. Im not holding my breath on this one.

  7. What game are you shooting? trap, skeet, 5 stand, sporting clays.....some guys will get real specific when it comes to picking a gun for a peticular shooting game.

     

    The 3 gas operated auto loaders mentioned about will certainly do the trick.

  8. Its a little putsy but worth the effort.....

     

    I made rabbit this weekend for the first time in over 20 years, they were so good it made me wonder why I kept passing them up all those years.....they are officially on the menue.

  9. I think this one has been done before but thus far its my favorite.

     

    Take two duck breasts (mallard) and slice thin the long way, then again in half to make 4 pieces of meat.

    Soak overnight in Terryacki, soy, and Werschester souce.

    Roll in one water chestnut, wrap wrap with bacon, add toothpick to hold it all.

     

    Grill till the bacon turns crisp, the meat should be med/rare appx when finished.

     

    Wild rice on the side or what ever suits your fancy.
