Title: Weapon of Choice
Post by: WildSpur on February 18, 2013, 12:53:02 AM
So what is everyone using this year? 

Though a diehard archer, bows and birds are not for me. 

Right now I rock an 835 Grandslam with the 20" barrel.  I am using 3.5 Magblends out of a Jellyhead choke.  I have a Fast Fire II on top.

I really love this gun but it might be a back up soon.  I am currently eyeing up an 870 due to my department recently switching to them.  Gotta keep eveything consistent!

I'll be using my 870 Supermag, topped with an old Tasco 2x22 pistol scope out on the barrel, shooting Winchester Hi-velocity 3-1/2's in #4 through a Remington Ventilator ported choke.

Gun:   870 Mag
Shells:  Don't know
Choke:  Don't know
Sights:  Don't know

Wasn't pleased at all with the performance last year and trying to figure out something new.
I shot my two birds at 17 and 18 steps and had pellets from the head to the feet.  I was shooting 3" Winchester Supreme #6's out of a Primos Tight Wad.

Me thinks if I can get an 870 soon I will try a .670 pure gold and stick with my magblends.
