Hi Buzz, the last time I hunted ruffs was close to 30 years ago. My gun then was an old Savage BS-E 20ga, bbls cut to 22" no choke. Did OK with that one.

You may have something about less distractions on the open plains. You do have more time to adjust, but you need more choke IMO. Of course you do have those snap shoots here also.

To be honest I really don't think too hard on it, just mount the gun and shoot. Does help to shoot clays off season, I switch guns there also. It also helps to have a good dog to get you ready.

Thanks again for the kind words!

Greg
