Tom, these are the kinds of posts I LIKE to read! Love the Pawling area; explored it over the years when the Vintagers was being held up at Orvis Sandanona; also a buddy from work and his Dad used to hunt up in that area every weekend when they escaped from NYC into the wild. So far as the best upland bird gun (at least for grouse & woodcock) ever devised, I think its the (Savage) Fox 16 ga. Skeet & Upland Game gun, 26' bbls. bored 'SK/CYL' (Savage nomenclature) and iMP. CYL. Mine mics out at .005" constriction in the right bbl. and .011 in the left. Also ideal on quail but a little sparse on choke for wild pheasants. P.S. - glad you are still in the area.
