get out of the house

charlie cleveland · 08-06-2009, 07:12 PM

when your getting bored or just plain lazy go in there and get that old double parker off the wall get you a hand full of shells grab some of those cheap paper plates and whamo your in busnines. with a little luck and imagination those plates can turn into quail fezant or what ever you shoot. i got my 10 ga. parker out today 32 in barrels full and full ph grade 1901 made. old gun was true to maker it still would kill dove or fezant at 50 yards easy. this getting out of the house will do you more good than a good dose of elphsom salt. ha im not conting the days either . good hunting charlie

I need to do some of that myself, have been spending wayyy too much time just sitting around and waiting. Maybe shoot some clays on Sunday, I need to warm up for early geese and doves as I've barely touched my guns all summer long.

I shoot all summer and it comes in handy when the Grouse try to put a forrest between them and a load of 7's

Our club won't allow 10ga....

However, I am thinking about buying one and wonder if anyone has shot 12ga shells using "little Skeeters" or some such tube.?

Greg,I use 12 gauge "Gauge Mates" in my 10 gauges. They work great. In fact I was thinkin of getting a set of 28 gauge to .410 Gauge Mate Golds for my Repro for some additional fun

to bad about not allowing 10's when most of the 12's are shooting 1 oz to 11/8 oz loads too. maybe they will change the rules to light 11/8 oz max load and not a gauge size.
