The tower shoot did not involve much walking. If there was any more walking, the 10 gauge would have been too much. Julia wants to shoot a 28 gauge. Some say that is not enough gun, but small guns become big guns in her hands

The 28 is plenty of gun IF you can shoot well. We hunt all wild birds and a gun that you can mount quickly is the ticket. Wild birds don't screw around when they flush, they don't tower up and then level off like preserve birds do. Factor in the ever present 15mph.+ wind up their butt and you'll see why you need a quick, nimble gun.

I have to laugh when we are at Cabela's buying our license in Mitchell, SD. Watching these dudes buying 1 3/8oz. of 4's and 5's makes me cringe.

BTW, my avatar shows a couple of pheasants taken with my 28 VH choked IC/IM and my pointing Lab, Parker. What a great dog.
