Mind you, its effectiveness with such light loads I feel is due to the tight chokes. Enough pellets are brought to bear on the target to effect clean kills, albeit forcing me to bear down a bit more than when shooting an open choked gun- which is not a bad thing IMO.
Well said, Gary.
RWTF,
You need to be more careful to put your ending quotation marks where they need to be. You had me confused there for a bit.

I knew Mr. Nash nevah' lived in Michigan.

Nope, never meant to imply that either. Mr. Nash was a Southern Gent'man from the great Volunteer State. I only live in MI by economic choice, but my heart will always be below the Mason-Dixon line. There have perhaps been a few gunning writers of note from the "Midwest"-- John Madson, Gordon McQuarrie-- but all the best gunning writers came from Dixie- Mr. Nash, Halilah Babcock, Arch Rutledge, William Faulkner- well he's a 'stretch' but "The bear" and "Race at Dawn" ain't too shabby!!
