Duck hunting takes more "stuff" than grouse hunting. I like the ability to grab my dog and a handful of shells and go, no boat, no decoys, no nothing, just Max and I. If there is anything easier I sure don't know what it is. Just wish we had more birds. In any event its time afield with my dog and that does not suck.
A 725 with 30's would be a dam fine do all shooter.
