    I cued in all of the above, but I usually just use it for Sporting Clays, and hunting
    I say lets all remove the warning labels and let nature take its course.

    I have not done 3 gun yet but I will give it a try. The problem is my addiction to sporting clays may cause me to have to sell my house and move into my parents shed so I can pay for shells. :mrgreen:

    All the others I have used my shotguns for. Anybody else pheasant hunt that is my favorite shotgun hunting.

    Wait til your wife gets hooked. Then the rate of shell usage doubles.
    We got into reloading, but still, you can go through unbelievable amounts.
    Addictive like crack.
    I think I shot over 10,000 rounds last year, and the wife did like 7,000 (we didn't get married til June)
    Then you have tuesday night trap, taking afternoons off to go get in a round. it's bad. :P

    I have 5 shootguns and i'm looking for a few more. I love to shoot Sporting Clays and Upland game with my Side by Side 20 ga. 3 of them are 12 ga. One model 500 for home defence and zombie deturant. Two 835 3 1/2" Magnum Waterfowl busters. And a over & under Savage 22 LR W/20 ga. Rabbit / Varmit gun. I'll be bird hunting from Sept. 1st until Jan. 31st with a little Archery Big Game Season in the mix. There's nothing better than hunting with a good bird dog and friends. I'm a tri-state hunter-Colorado, Nebraska and Kansas. I have a German Shorthaired Pointer ( Buck ) and a Wirehaired Pointer ( Maggie ) they keep me busy that's for sure. Later, Larry [buck]

    I got it from De Haan Shotguns. Made in Turkey by HUGLU Arms 100% Engraving! It's a real beauty! :cool:
