Gil,
No idea what you're referring to. Don't know what "embiggen" is or any offers. When you click to make the image larger the hosting site shows some Russian hotty clickbait. Gil, do not click!

Qwen, Admiring your nice bird and beautiful gun, as I sit here in the snow with our grouse season long gone. Hope you have another productive day tomorrow. Take advantage of your two remaining weeks. Karl

My old buddy depicted in the 1980 photo of us with gobblers in the current turkey thread invited me to run my favorite girls, Abby and Willa, with his dogs up at his farm today. It was hot but cooled off towards the day's end. We had dogs on the ground from about 2:30 and the heat and dry conditions made locating birds difficult. I had an opportunity to shoot my Darne R10 20 ga. after having it opened to SK1 and LM from M and Tighter than Dick's hatband and it was great to shoot. Ted, it really made the difference. Gil

River Ridge, nice account and photos. After clicking on the photos to "embiggen" I was amazed at the advertisement offers of Asian, Slavic and Ukranian women who would be interested in older men. How flattering. Gil They Like strong manly man who shoot yiltzzzzz...

A Hot peg to close out the game season 2018. First drive had lots of birds but the sun was directly in my eyes. Second drive I was on the end of the line and saw few birds. Third one was the charm...for the EC Green. Tried the 1 1/16 Oz RST #5s and they were very nice.

Owen, I've been using RST #5's for pheasants for the last two years, and they have become my favorite. They also work great in the left barrel for the inevitable follow up on grouse. Karl

Karl I really like the 1 1/16 loads #5, paper, roll crimped on those pheasants. I am close to you on grouse, preferring 7 1/2 R, 6 L. I shot my first Eurasian pheasant with a beautiful iridescent green and purple neck. Here is one shot by my friend on Saturday:

Owen, Nice and unusual coloring on the bird. RE: grouse, I've become a fan of RST's #7's for grouse. I use the fold crimped papers, something about the smell. Karl
