Default First bird with Trojan

I shot my first bird with this 12 Trojan which happened to be a beautiful northern mallard near Webster South Dakota.

Great shot Matt, fun to watch. Too bad the ducks were in short supply we did what we could to keep the Trojans talking.

Great gun...and photo! We are in Minnesota now chasing grouse up north with our Gordon Setters and Parker shotguns. We hear duck guns booming along the Big Fork every morning, and see ducks (and many swans!) staging to head your way. Good luck with your season.
