    Which turkey gun?

    If you like to call them in, you don’t need a 3 1/2 inch gun. I like the older stuff and how well they work if you can get them to come to a call. George Daw 12 gauge made in 1866 and a Burgess 12 gauge wrist slide action with 2 inch shells…

    Should I go 20 practical?

    I’m not sure what’s practical about a 20 Practical. The 204 Ruger is already available in ammunition, reloading components and rifles. It just seems more “practical” to shoot the 204. I’m not one to shy away from odd cartridges, I have tons and some that few people have ever heard of. But...

    First Year I Was Skunked

    It’s a 1965, I have had it for 53 years. This is it in my garage with a poster about the 1964 and 1965 GTO and David North who designed the car for General Motors. It is interesting that the headlights are a feature of design related to a shotgun and the over/under design making the car more...
