Default Today At The Range

Went to the range today, to make sure my Remington 11-87, 12ga. was sighted-in. Using 2-3/4" Lightfield EXP Slugs, 3-9x40 Leupold VX-II, here is my 5 shot group at 50 yards, I'm still well within the kill zone of a deer and bear out too 100 yards.....Bring on the deer/bear season!!!!!!!

I don't really use this shotgun anymore, it's just my back up, but I have taken a few deer with it over the years, and in 2003 I took a New Jersey Bear with it.

Thank you SW, I'm using it this year during our six day buck week, which will also be our bear season. If it wasn't for the bear hunt, I would just opt to use my H&R Ultra Deluxe 20ga. I know the 20ga. can take a bear down but I like the added knock down of the 12ga. for bears
