Perhaps for the first time!
Last 2 times out I took the Trojan and even flushed a hen pheasant by almost stepping on her (no dog at the moment)
Tomorrow I will take the repro out, to once again try and scare up some birds...supposed to be a hard freeze tonight...that's okay by me as I usually sweat up a storm in any weather over 40 degrees...If I'm successful, I'll post a pic or 2...
For those of you wondering, both the repro and the Trojan are 20 ga guns...I've never shot a bird with anything but a 12 so I hope the 20 will bring down a ringneck!
I was sorting through some shells and was going to try some older 20's in No.6 shot but I noticed some corrosion around the primer area so I put them away and will use some new Winchester 7 and a halfs...
I'll try the older 20's at the range sometime to see if they fire...
