Thanks, I usually do.

I spent a lot of time, effort, and money on assembling my setups and testing them to determine their capabilities. After all that, people that toss around terms like “stunt shooter” piss me off. Going out and buying a box of shells and going hunting without checking the patterns seems like more of a stunt to me. I know because I’ve done it. Opportunities here are too scarce to squander them trusting to luck.


I know the drill. My Benelli M1 12 gauge with Indian Creek .665" hits the 200 pellet strikes in 10" @ 40 yards mark with the Hevi13 3-2-6 shell. I shoot TSS #3 & #4's on coyotes. Or tungsten BB or T shot. I've been around a little bit myself and understand the effort it takes to work out a good combination. You use your pop gun and it works for you, good on ya. My turkey hunting guns start at 20 gauge and work up the ladder. It's all good.

Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit on his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats.
