Ummm...you've never been shotgunning with me, have you...? One of my best friends and a 20-year hunting companion, sitting in the duck blind in North Dakota, turned to me after I missed three shots at a passing mallard and said, very calmly and solemnly, "Would you like to go to the truck and get your .280? I know you would have hit the duck with it."

And he was likely right... grin.

Thanks...and I am dead serious about buying the shotgun if it doesn't fit you. Would love to see it, and of course you're welcome to stay here if we are here.
