Hi,

Looks like it was a fine day! Those big roosters are something when they explode from cover. Very addicting.

And using your Great Grandfather's shotgun makes it doubly special. Just go easy on the old girl and use lower pressure shells, (low brass doesn't mean low pressure). Not because it dangerous, Iver Johnson made a fine and rugged workingman's shotgun. But because it can be shot loose over time with higher pressure loadings. And your Great Grandson should use it on his first pheasant hunt. I still hunt with my Grandfather's NID from time to time.

Now, when did you say supper was being served?
