RE: Longest shot
DS,I can count on one hand the # of birds I' ve shot over 40yds.usually it was because I misjudged the distance.They were all in open fieldsI use a Remington 1100 and Federal #6.Nothin wrong with shots over 40yds if you know your gun will make that shot.I just like to watch the bird come in for as long as I can.
