The cyl/mod choking is my favorite, especially for grouse.l have a 26 in VH 20, and my DHE 16 both choked that way, and both weigh exactly 6 lbs. I've often thought I'd like to try an English Pointer.

Beautiful dogs, and a special gun. I followed many pointers in my time participating in field trials in Missouri. They can sure strike a pose on point that will make you catch breath.
