New Years Phox Pheasant Phun
I had posted earlier about using all 8 of my 16 ga's to take game this year. That included 3 Parkers, 3 Foxes, a Lefever, and a Rizzini ou. I then completed the Parker slam ending with my little VH 20. I completed the Fox slam on New Years Day using my latest aquired of my 6 Foxes, a nice 20 SW of Utica origion. It has 28' cyl/m barrels. It has much nicer than normal wood for a SW and retains 30-40 % of its case color. I moved another bird, but it flushed back over the male's head( Shiner) and he came up like an ICBM and grabbed the bird by the wing and pulled it out of the air--he let loose and the bird took off low, affording me no shot for fear of hitting the dogs. Since I have 2 SW 20's, this one may have to become trading material on another Parker. Time to get back to shooting the Parker 16's
BTW, Shiner turned 12 yo on 12/31/13 .
