Karl, no worries....Dustin and I are good buddies. Ive handled some really nice small bore Merkel guns, but havent shot any (I owned a 28 b but traded it before I ever shot it....kind of crazy). They are pretty well balanced, I think, but I dont have much experience. Maybe, Dustin would like the Merkel if he handled and shot one ? Nevertheless, when we meet up at the Lapeer shoot, maybe you could let me take a couple shots with one of your smallbores? Im looking forward to that shoot, and meeting you and some of the other guys here. I googled my trip and I-69 takes me right there, only about 5 hours from Indianapolis. Pretty easy Peezy. See you on May 12th!
