My season in Virginia starts Saturday September 3rd from noon to sunset. I will have my new Stoeger 3500 with me as i usually am standing with my trusty remington 870 but i am finally tired of shucking shells! 15 per day, 30 in possession, Composed of mourning doves and white-winged doves, singly or in combination is what we are allowed here and i hunt i a management area that is specifically managed for dove! big thing in this area as people come from all over to hunt this management area and you really have to camp out the friday before opening Saturday just to get a spot! enough people to keep thousands of dove moving through the management area all day long for a guaranteed sore shoulder and a limit of birds! I will keep to myself how many boxes of shells it usually takes to make that sore shoulder and limit though! I start looking around a few weeks before season to find the best fields and fly patterns in that management area but once the shooting starts sometimes only the main flyways stay consistant from year to year because they change the fields and crops from year to year! Great fun!

I will be using all the chokes and shooting to paper my brand new 3500 this and next week and i can let you know what works best for me of the stock chokes because i do not plan on purchasing more chokes unless its nessesary!
