I just picked 3 easy threads
I have seen a bunch more
Reason I post this
A good freind was hunting with us this afternoon
He fired 2 shots at a lone goose
First shot sounded normaly loud, but had a slightly off sound
Heknocked feathers off it's butt and it droped a leg
2 shot finished it off and blew up the barrel of his SBE 2 just in front of the forearm
He was unhurt , his Finisher has a nasty tear in it
He probely lowered the barrel into it
