I will admit that a 12 ga. is a better "all-around" do-everything gauge. Some of the Beretta semi-auto's I've hefted are nice and light. I have a pair of 11-87's and they are NOT bird guns. They are...

I'll admit that 20 years ago, my favorite grouse gun was a light Beretta 12 ga. 686 with 1 oz. loads of #8's and CYL/SKT tubes. Being a Beretta, it weighed 6 3/4 lbs., so it wasn't too terrible to...

I reload so shell costs are a moot point for me. I too grouse hunt in ME, NY & PA. And for for that kind of walking, especially in some of the thicker hillisides where you always feel like you are...

If you are not capable to hit them at the base of the neck, shoot for the base of the spine or root of the tail. Any centerfire round will anchor a bird this way and won't ruin the breast. Reload...

Pundits have said that if Jack chose to write and elucidate the virtues of the .280 and not the .270, the popularity of the .280 would be cemented today instead of the .270 Win.

7MM bullets come in greater bullet weight ranges than .277 and offer a bit better B.C. and S.D. as well. The .280 Rem. was always a bit underloaded and those who've stepped up to the wildcats like...

Another "+" for the 7mm Rem. Mag. There was nothing wrong with this cartridge, and shortening it so as to put it in a "short action" to "save weight" is an argument I am tired of hearing. How much...

Another Magnum-itus disciple?

Maybe in Kansas or Iowa over birds that flush wild and shots are at 40 yards, the 12 will have some advantages, but a 20 is fine for pheasants over pointing dogs....

I agree. The last thing the market needed was more new cartridges to sell more rifles. The gamut of cartridges today are plenty. Just look at the number of variants in 7MM that were available BEFORE...

I'm surprised my original post was removed. Guess the mods deemed it offensive.

Unless you hit the spine, moose are pretty unreactive to the shot of anything they're hit with. But, my friends do...

I would pick the gun that fits properly, and if it's the heavier one (Orion), determine if that is one that you'd carry all day on an upland hunt chasing grouse or wood**** in the thickets and...

I have a .308 and like it, but have been wanting another rifle and decided my next caliber will be a 7mm-08. Both are great calibers.

A standard or heavy trap load (1 1/8 oz. of hard #8's or 7 1/2's) is ideal. They pattern better than "economy loads" and you'll be satisfied with clean kills.

1) Under barrel first. More in line and lower to your shoulder which helps you recover from recoil a bit better. On O/U's without a selective trigger, the UNDER barrel always fires first.

Nice piece. I still have mine (M94 in .32 Win. Spcl.), purchased new in 1954. Used on my honeymoon in ME to shoot cans one afternoon. Used by my sons once or twice deer hunting years ago. I don't...
