Don't know if I will ever be in Del Rio so inviting myself to supper isn't likely to happen. You started this, it is now your mission to get me a recipe!

grin I actually keep a box of 3" #6s in the truck... mostly for screwing with folks that say "you can't kill 'em that when they're that high". I never break them out when hunting alone. Slip in that full, lead them about 6' - 7', and blast away.

Now I'll admit those loads are not fun to shoot, but the look on the face of the non-believers is worth the pain.


We all need to practice Whoa more.

I'm just going to use 3.5" Ts tomorrow and dig a hole out in a cut milo field to lay in and only shoot birds that decoy to the mojos.

the high flyers is why I got the 30" steel shot barrel so I could put 3" shells in my non mag and keep it leaned up on the fence while I use my 20 GA on the low fast ones

Nah, you don't need that much shell. These work adequately
