Please don’t think I’m arguing—I’m not. You all have more shots fired (experience) than I, but in 60 plus years of shooting, and keeping records for the last 40, I’m okay with shooting 65% on wild quail. It’s natural to me to float the bird and I know when I really “see” the bird, I’ll generally hit it.
Besides, someone has to own those high stocked, straight/splinter two trigger guns.
