OP prairie dog shooter Campfire Outfitter Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 9,095 New Mexico	Saturday was opening day in my County. I shot my gobbler at 7:20 AM with my 20 gauge smooth bore flintlock trade gun. I called the birds in with a Lynch's box and a raspy double reed diaphragm call. I took the shot at 25 yards. My gun is a straight cylinder bore, I loaded it with 80 grains of FF Goex and 1 1/4 ounces of #6 shot. The bird had two beards, the main one is 9 1/8 inches and the second is 4 inches long. This is the first season I have hunted with the flintlock. It won't be the last. "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."

All the new fangled toys are no substitute for an effective load, and good calling. Way to go!
