buzz, never fear, I will. Last year I kept a loose record of the number of miles logged on foot or snowshoes per bird shot. I wish I remember what the final average was in birds per mile, but it was less than one. And it isn't easy stuff to walk at all.

Lots of kids grow up with Stevens, Savage, or H&R singleshots that weigh a lot less than 6# and they manage. Or at least we used to.
