From a morning break during yesterday's grouse hunt:

Little Ben brought this 18 pounder in from 80 yards through dense beds of water milfoil. He grabbed a wing from underneath close to the body and all I could see coming in was the bird! 1 1/12 oz steel 1's from a Western Field 12 ga.

GLS, I agree. This is a wonderful picture in color, design, and clarity.

You go, Little Ben! Tundra or trumpeter swan? Or are they the same?

Guess you meant 1 1/2 oz.?

Tundra (formerly Whistling). Trumpeters are a bit bigger and are more interior in distribution. Pic shows the biggest Tundra I have brought to bag..an even 20 lbs. Most adults are in the 17-18 lb range. For comparison, barrels on that Western Field are 30" long. I'll be out this afternoon to try for my 2011 bird.

No I meant 1 1/12 oz. 24.5 gr 800X in AA hulls with RSI Sam 1 cups. Load No. 12 in their manual.
