RE: german shorthair or wirehair

I may be predjudiced by my affection for the breed, but if you are going to use the dog for waterfowling, I' d go with the Wirehair because the coat affords more protection from cold water.

RE: rem 7400?

I have a 742 in .243 and a friend has one in .308. Both are very reliable - I can' t recall a jam with either - and their accuracy is on a par with most hunting rifles of any action type.

RE: Autoloader for birdhunting

For a field gun, where you are going to spend more time carrying than shooting, I like the Franchi 48AL. In 20ga it's only about 5 1/2 pounds and it handles like lightning.
