Bruce and David: I can see the point of lots of action and the cold. I will find out about the cold soon enough. I routinely chase roosters up to the minus 30C days (22 below zero F). Seldom do I get birds birds birds. The couple times that has happened, I ended up watching in amazement. One time, with a pump, I was in a good spot on a cold day and was trying fast reloading with gloved hands after a shot while still paying attention to potential birds. That was a mistake. Ended up shoving a shell into the magazine backwards. Spent the next 10 - 15 minutes dismantling the gun to get that round out. Didn't know that could happen. My buddies carried on chuckling about the error and shooting away. As in a lot of life there's a reason behind old addages. Haste can make Waste.
Cheers,
Jack
