Best days afield don't have much to do with the number of birds in the bag. That said, I remember a day when I took a limit of four wild prairie pheasants with four shots from my old Stevens 5100 16ga.

That gun was my first double gun, and that is a feat I've not accomplished since, even with my modest collection of much "better" guns. I sometimes wonder why I don't shoot the old Stevens every time out. For me, a day to remember indeed!
