Trying to make it happen...
« on: April 08, 2017, 10:17:56 PM »
Tomorrow, I will begin trying to accomplish a hunting goal that will mean a lot to me. When my Grand dad passed away last May, he left me a Stevens double barrel .410 shotgun. I've always wanted to kill a bird with this gun then clean it and put it up. Today, I patterned this gun and I believe it's going to work inside 30 yds. Hopefully I'll have a picture soon of an old Jawja longbeard and my granddaddy's gun. I'll post a pic of the 20 yd pattern. I used Remington 3" #6 shot XLR load.

Sounds like a great thing to do! Cannot wait to see it beside an old longbeard!

No luck today. Gobbled good on the roost but hardly anything on the ground. I'll give it another shot Tuesday.

No luck today. Hunted until 11am and really never got on a single bird. Gotta go work a few days but I'll keep trying.

You'll connect, don't worry.  That .410 will put a hurtin' on one.
