Default Shotgun ?

Hey Everyone,

Looks like I changed my mind again on which shotgun to get. I started to think about going more traditional and found this one.

Wanted to get some opions. I like the thought of upland, waterfowl and turkey hunting with a traditional shotgun. I was thinking of the 12ga because of the choke opions and what I would be hunting most of the time. I am still a big fan of the traditional blackpowder and think I would enjoy myself alot more this way. I talked to the Cabelas in East Grand Forks and they said they had a 12ga up there so I thought I would stop a take a feel. I think my local Scheels had one close to it also. I realize it maybe a little slower loading and if I know me I probably fire both barrals at once( atleast once)[8D]. Just want to get some opions.

Default RE: Shotgun ?

When you get it, you have to test the patterns of course, but I see no reason why it will not work just fine. Good luck.

Personally if I were going after waterfowl and turkey a lot, I might have looked at a Knight TK-2000. They have better long distance range. These traditional shotguns I believe might be a little limited in the reach out and touch someone program. But I am sure it will work for you. My traditional so far has been throwing a real solid pattern at 25 yards. I think I can stretch that even further.
