Very elegant.

Until my boat comes in, I'll continue with my old workhorse.

Beautiful Classic double!

I wanted one of these, and there were a lot coming in a couple of years ago. I missed out when they were relatively inexpensive.

What loads do you use in her?

Couldn't say off the top of my head
Found it.
I'm using the Fiiochi hull and 616 primer, BP's obturator, 2 3/8" cork, 7/8oz nickel plated 7 1/2's on top of 24gr Longshot closed with an overshot card and roll crimp. According to the BP load recipe I'm getting 1345fps at 7100psi.

I've got another with the BP Z16 wad and 10z of shot, but in these older chokes it shoots much tighter than I like at 30-35 yards.

Get a good German Whirehair and all you need is an old Stevens single shot .410.

My upland gun is a browning BPS 20ga If there were huntable numbers of pheasant around here I would shoot 1 1/8oz Of #5 at 1300fps. Same load I use when the chukar are not holding.

A real good one and you leave the gun home, they will also snag an occasional

I lost my ideal pheasant gun. frown

Ended up having to leave it with a woman I couldn't stand.

Probably the most non-glamorous "ideal gun" I would ever list. But 20 years ago I was murdering GOBS of roosters over a pretty little liver & white Brittany named Belle. She was unreal !!

I toted a Winchester 1400 XTR 12 ga. with a 22" VR barrel and the IC tube screwed in. Shot Super X 7 1/2's. Seemed like I just COULD NOT miss with that stubby little gun.

Over a Springer I'd just switch to a mod or full tube and run hard 5's or 6's.
