Dove Season
« on: August 28, 2006, 05:53:10 PM »
Dove season is just around the corner and I was just curious what NEF\H&R you were going to use for those who hunt the little grey rocket (doves) this year. ;D

I plan on at least one day using my old 20ga topper deluxe. It's what I used as a kid. I've got a new barrel for my 870 that needs a workout as well.

I'd much rather be remembered for being a great shot than having the most expensive gun

My Mrs is using her NEF 22"/Mod Ladies/Youth gun in 20ga. I'm using my son's 28ga (26"/Mod).

I'll have my topper .28 gauge out before the season ends and I might try my 16 ga this year as I have reloaded a boat load of 7 1/2 for it.

Here something that might blow your mind, My wife and I were outside in the front yard enjoying the mouring sights today. And my wife spyed a mouring dove sitting in the black walnut tree. Temp this mouring was 34 and two days ago it was 23 with snow. So much for doves beening fair weather birds  :o
