Must have been opening day when the doves were a little stupid! I grew up on a 410, at 14 my Dad bought me the first 1100 to hit town, plane barrel 26 Imp Cly ,26", after years of a 410 I was death on dove, wore the gun slam out 3 times, high brass 9's first season, home grown birds and high brass 7.5 second season when Yankee birds came down! I still love a 410 at a hot weather water hole, or when I was feeding 600 steers and heifers I would slip around farm by myself and kill a mess with 410. The ring neck dove have taken root at home ,I would not shoot them for 5 years ,there are plenty now! no season nor law when it comes to them! v best winpoor
