The only hunting I do is waterfowl, ducks, geese & brant.
In crappy weather I will use a Remington SP-10 or a Remington 11-87, but usually I prefer a double gun and most of my doubles are wild-fowlers of one sort or another. They range from modern stuff like a 3 1/2" chambered Browning Citori and a 3" Browning BSS to Ithaca NID's in 10 Magnum and Super 10 down to some nice Bayard/Pieper hammerguns in 10 down to 16 gauge.
We live in a time where appropriate ammunition and reloading data as well as components are easily available so there is no reason not to use our guns as the makers intended for them to be used.
