I picked a bird and downed it with the right. Saw another going to my left and nailed it with the left. Went to pick up the last and when I came back my host handed me two others. I had taken two with the first shot, cleanly. Three, with the first two shots out of the gun.

It's further proven itself to be a dog nuts quail gun.
Now, those are some shots to be remembered (and I like those choke borings!).
