Shot four of the roll crimp jobs trimming tree limbs . Three were ones I’d didn’t quite have the spacers correct and one was what I considered a good one . Let me just say 1 5/8 ounces of 7 1/2’s at about 5 yards does a very pleasing job of trimming tree limbs .

Good to know that I'm not alone.
Everyone thinks I'm crazy for trimming trees like that...

Until I hand them the shotgun and let them give it a go!

Yes sir it would I believe . Just need to go somewhere there are Eurasian Banded Dove so I don’t get in any squabbles over game commission rules !
