Good work on the snipe, I've always said they were the toughest to hit american game bird. I haven't killed one in a long time, I need to get out for them again.

They are some tuff little buggers to hit! That 12 ga. vulcan is choked full and fuller, so you've got to let 'em get out a ways before loosing a round. I always shoot too soon at most flushing birds! I don't know why I think I need more guns, I've put over 2,000 rounds of 7 1/2's through that gun, most all of them at feathery critters, and we get along very well.. A lighter, more open choked 20 to match the 12 is in my near future nonetheless, if I can find one that hasn't been messed for less than a month's wage...

Destry-I enjoyed your crane hunt report, sorry those dinosaurs avoided you. I've got my eye on some down here when the season opens later this month!
