One morning this last season I took these thirteen wild bobwhite with sixteen shells. The gun I used is a Parker 28ga GH, 26" damascus barrels, choked full and full, straight grip stock 14-1/4 x 1-3/4 x 3, 5-3/4 pounds. The cartridges were RSTs, 5/8 oz of #8s, 1150 fps. Didn't lose a single bird.



Yep, it is damn near impossible to hit a bird with a light gun, much less one with short barrels and a big stock drop.


I am glad to be here.
