Mark's 8 gauge DH weighs 14 pounds plus some ounces and he was shooting the equivalent of. bob-white quail and ruffed grouse targets.

I wish Mr. Dunkle had a 'genuflecting' emoticon

He IS the guy to follow....far less foliage to deal with

One 8ga shell is equivalent to almost two of my 3/40z 20ga loads.

I'm not sure he was shooting 1 3/4 ounce loads. Junior Charlie Brooks loads his eight gauge with 1 1/8 ounces and shot an 8X10 in last year's Bo Whoop.

"That's nothing"...I shot a 7 x 10 on the Bo Whoop this year using a 10 lb. HE Super-Fox I'd never even loaded before, using Wally World "Petite Kaolin Grinder" 7/8 oz. 1125 fps training loads! Perfect for that No. 3 bird - the shot and the target hit the ground at the same time!
