Probably at home crying because somebody with a $300 mossberg pump outshot their $12K over and under. . . . . . ok so that was a shot.

Seriously i don't know where anybody is. I haven't gotten to even go skeet shooting lately.

Nawh, you don't reckon that sort of thing ever happens do you! You know the $12K O/U has got to shoot better than the $300 Mossberg pump. It has to since it cost so much more. A friend of mine once told me "I always buy Mercedes-Benzs. They have to better don't they? Otherwise why would I pay twice as much (or more) for them?"

Seriously though I too have wondered why there isn't more posting activity among the shotgunners. I consider myself primarily a shotgunner (hence my forum name dovehunter) first and foremost. I only concern myself with rifles and/or handguns when I can't be hunting with one of my scatterguns.

Shotguns etc

Well to be honest I have a couple of those 12K (or more) shotguns Do they shoot better than a Mossyberg?? Actually ..yes they do. Over the course of time. Have a Krieghoff that has in the neighborhood of 3/4 of a million shells through it. It is now worth 4 times what I paid and still good for another 3/4 million shells. Do that with your mossyberg! I really don't think so. Love to shoot shotguns..mainly doves and ducks..but clay birds will do in the off seasons. We have a BUNCH of those Collared doves here. No seasons no limits they stay all year and you can bait 'em too. And they eat ok.. Not 'nuff shotgun shooters here though. You probably couldn't get a really good dove shoot together up here...and the doves are here..till cold weather...about August 29th But I do ok on ducks and the pheasants are ok..just too easy to hit..just a big ol chikin.
