Title: Pa Bird
Post by: remmy1187 on May 20, 2014, 07:18:26 AM
Finally, got my first for the year.  Pretty good bird, he has a 91/2" beard, 13/8 and 11/4" spurs, and came in at 21.5 lbs.  Dropped him with my 11-87 20 gauge at about 40 yards with my handloaded hevi 7's

Brian,

I think that certainly qualifies as, "a pretty good bird"!!!

Congratulations!

Awesome bird. Now tell me about the Remington. Did you buy it like that or did you customize it yourself?

The gun is a full camo 11-87 Sportsman.  I got lucky and got the 20 gauge shur-shot from a member here and I had to send it out to get dipped.  Put a FF3 on it this year.  The choke is an Indian Creek .555 and my load is a handload of Hevi Shot 7's,  I absolutely love this gun
