I have shot a q1 and q2 for 35 years and in grouse and woodcock hunting find it the perfect combination. The distance involved is short, seldom more than 30 yds., and with a # 6 in the left barrel for the second shot a 40 yd. shot is very doable provided the load is made with hard shot at less than 1200.

The result of over choked guns is obvious in clay shooting as seen last Sat. at Peacedale, our old guns were made to shoot the ammo of the time, soft shot without shot collars , now it puts us at a disadvantage with todays shells.
