I can't sleep, and thanks to work I can't hunt, so in going to live vicariously through y'all.
So what's everybody shooting tomorrow? Gun, caliber, choke, ammo!
I'll be out Sunday and Monday, will be shooting Beretta Extrema 2, 12ga, IC, Rio Texas Load
And for kicks and grins, Taurus Judge 410, open, no idea on loads

Not hunting tomorrow but all I got is an 870 shooting Rem surshot
Considering trying to trade my AR in 223 towards a descent autoloader since I don't use it as much now that I have the 6.8 SPC.

Shooting my dad's old Remington 17. I don't even know what the choke is, but I hit dove with it better than anything else I own.

Beretta A300 12 ga., IC, 1 1/8 oz. 7 1/2. It sucks that you can't be out on opening morning, but God's work comes first.

My almost 30 year old Remmy 11-87 Premier. She's never failed me on 'the next best day to Christmas'!
I'm missing the AM hunt but will be wheels up in about 6 hours and have a smoking barrel in less than 9.

Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Can't go until this evening, but I'll be carrying an A5 of some varient. Either a Light 12 or a 20. I've been liking the Rios the past couple years. Ialso like the Herter's that replicate the Remington Express recipe for 1/2 the price, when I can find them.

No place to go this year for birds. The place I had been going to the past couple of years was my neighbors dad's place, but unfortunately they aren't on speaking terms at the moment, so there's that.

Going to be several weeks before I get out. Hope there are still birds around when I do.
I'll be shooting a Winchester Supreme Select Elegance in 12ga w/Mod over Improved under.
To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.www.NewHopeEquine.com - Health and Healing through Horses.

I'll be shooting a Winchester Supreme Select Elegance in 12ga w/Mod over Improved under. I'm jealous. I've got a set of Winchester 101's - a 12 and a 20. I'll be toting one or the other.
Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.
