Used 20Ga USH
« on: July 27, 2008, 05:06:35 PM »
I just picked up a used 20ga USH for $150.
Its in really good shape.  Came with a cheap Scope.  Any Recomendations on what ammo I should try???  I was thinking about putting some Synthetics on it for hunting, I pretty much go rain or shine.  Anyone put a thumb hole stock on one of these?
 
I have been waiting all year for the Ultra Light Slug Hunter but I can't seem to find one anywhere and this thing fell in may lap yesterday.

I've got a .270 Handi wih a Leupold 3x9x40 that I think I'm gonna put on the USH and get a 50mm for the Rifle.

I think depending on what yr it was bought most came with the THole. I have seen the bbl only go for $150 a few times... great buy .I was lucky enough to finally get my 20 ULSH from Walmart .Kurt

I've got an USH on the way and already have 6 boxes of the Hastings Laser Accurate Sabot slugs in my cabinet. These appear to be some dandy units you may consider trying.

Congratulations on a great deal n2o2diver. Those 20 gauge USH's are great. And for that price it was a steal!!!....<><....;)

Yep Kurt, I can see where that might be a problem.  I found a place that was clearing them out of their stock for $3/ box. Got 10 boxes shipped for $40, but deals like that are rare.
