Unfortunately, at that point the extractors failed and I had to bring it to a gunsmith for a minor repair. When I got it back, I took it to a nearby pheasant farm loaded with RST 1 1/4 oz loads. I'm very happy to say that I killed 3 out of 6 my first time out with that gun. I'm not accustomed to hunting with such heavy barrels, so I was probably a little slow on the "swing" a few times, but when you hit them with a 10 ga., they go down.
Jeff,
Congratulations on your new gun, I can't wait to hunt with the gun I got from you. The guys in this forum have been so helpful to me too in here. Congratulations again, hope we can get together for a hunt sometime.
