After opening my grouse season with a DH's tried and true damascus barrels, I decided to give that new fangled Titanic fluid steel a try. Sure enough, that new hi-tech fluid stuff kills grouse too! Managed to bag 3 young birds this morning, just one shy of a limit. Here's a pic of the DHE with those new fluid steel style barrels and the birds, along with one of my two eager grouse flushers, Luke and Toby, who don't always treat the birds as gently as they should (one came to me sans its head)...Dean, I hope my being blessed with such an early grouse opener isn't too painful to bear, and makes your long anticipated opener all the more enjoyable once it arrives.
