Took my old 16ga drilling out with some 2 1/2" 1oz NP BB's and called in a coyote to 44 yards, Then went over to the trap field and did very well with 3/4 oz 8's.

My Winchester 1897 was made, as near as I can tell, in 1904. It it an absolute hoot to use in the field, and does just fine on pheasants and grouse.....and the occasional duck. I've been using Baschieri & Pellagri 2 5/8 inch load of #5s on the upland birds, and RST's 2 1/2 inch Bismuth load (#5s also, I believe) for the ducks. I have to say, I'm pretty impressed with the B&P load. It smacks the birds with authority, and even functions well through my Remington M11 Sportsman. I use it in all four of my 16s. Oh, wait....I have 5 now. forgot about that other SxS I picked up last winter......
