Default 3E on the L 'Anguille

Earlier this week my youngest son and I combined a "fact finding mission" to look at a JD 6700 sprayer for sale in northern AL with a two day duck hunt in the flooded bottoms of the L 'Anguille River in eastern Arkansas. I ALWAYS take my big 32" barreled, 3" chambered SuperFox, but this time I also took my 32" barreled LC Smith 3E, with original 3" chambers. I decided to use the Smith the first morning. I used BOSS 1 1/4 oz., no. 5, copper plated bismuth. The Smith is choked very tight, like the SuperFox, and patterning with the lower pressure/fiber wadded bismuth loads had yielded patterns in the 70% range. Results that morning were entirely satisfactory.

Five guns in the blind ....... 20 mallards, 6 teal and 2 gadwalls. Beautiful blue sky morning with a light breeze out of the South.
