Nice, Livin' the life of Reilly, Boomstick. As my Nana was fond of saying.

The last time I got any Huns was last year. We were driving at night and a flock flew across the road in the dark (spooked by a coyote maybe?). I got 1 with the grill ( shattered the grill) and 1 with the left rear view (needed a new mirror as it shattered the housing and the glass).

Beautiful old hammer gun. Had a strong itch for one of those a few years back, never did find the right (affordable) one to scratch it…..

Get that young boy a 6 Dasher and he'll be able to give the speedgoats a hard time not to mention the mulies!! Very economical to load for as it only takes 32.4 grains Varget to push a 108 grain Berger bullet at 3000 fps and gives fantastic accuracy out of a well built rifle!
Even birds know not to land downwind!

Hey shrap,
Do you really walk around with that thing open and the hammers cocked?
Seems I remember Layne Simpson or somebody else writing about that a bunch.

Seems I remember Layne Simpson or somebody else writing about that a bunch. Nope. Closed and uncocked untill I see the birds. Then I roll down the window, cock the hammers and start blasting...

I quit shooting at those things finally. Operative word is "at". There is an applicative joke about 2 guys jumping a covey of Huns, which took off running, as they do. One guy threw up his gun, while the other guy exclaimed, " Hey you aren't going to shoot them running, are you?" "Not if the little bastards will stop!"
