Those are beautiful boxes, Destry. How about a picture of the Swamp Angel?

Did you stop in at the Wild Hare Cafe? (If it’s still there?)

Took the Swamp Angel along, she likes those big bullets.

Let's just say it was obvious I hadn't shot any flyers in quite awhile....

Stopped on the way home to pay my respects to Capt. Bogardus and left a token of admiration.
I still have 3/4 of a case (that's 500 for your youngsters) of those Super Pigeon loads and 1/2 case of the Federal Pigeon loads. The Federals were always my favorite but the WW were right behind them.

The 3 1/4 DE are not that bad when shot in a 8+lb gun. The Federals were softer than the WW. You never notice it when that trap opens and the bird is making a hasty exit to the fence.
