Default RE: New toy, H&R Ultra Slug

That's just like mine - the Deluxe version. (Longer forestock, checkering and laminated camo). YOU ARE GONNA LOVE IT! I'll bet you wind up thinking......"best $219 I ever spent".

The recoil pads are second to none. Put some 3-inch mags thru it and watch the flame show.

YES FOLKS! BE THE FIRST IN YOUR CAMP TO "KILL IT AND GRILL IT" WITH THE H&R ULTRA FLAMETHROWER. WOW YOUR HUNTING BUDDIES WHEN YOU SHOW BACK UP AT CAMP WITH YOUR GAME ALREADY COOKED TO PERFECT MEDIUM RARE! FOR THOSE WHO PREFER STRICTLY MEDIUM OR A LITTLE MORE ON THE MEDIUM WELL SIDE...................JUST LOAD 'ER UP AND PUT ANOTHER ROUND THRU IT!

We've got two H&R Ultras in the house, my 12 Deluxe and my oldest sons 20 standard. That 20 is a certain tackdriver! (Not that my 12 isn't).

You got a darn good deal for $219, especially considering that the leather sling probobly cost $50+. The stock slings really aren't good for squat, WAY too slippery on the shoulder.

The only thing I didn't like about the deluxe (with longer forestock) was that my hand wants to be just behind the sling swivel and it would hurt my hand when fired. So I took the swivel mount off and put a loop on that end of the swivel. I adjusted my sling to be just long enough to be slightly forced over the end of the barrel when action was broke open. Problem alieviated.

By the way - they all come from the factory with the hammer spur. You really can't easily set the hammer without it. I recommend a bit od light loc-tite on the spur's set screw. I've seen more than a few get loose and some myseriously disappear in the field.

Enjoy!
