Jager,

Nah, I have several modern guns, some of which I've hunted deer with. I used to shoot deer with a Lanber Model 85, which threw Brenneke slugs very nicely and had ejectors to boot. It came in handy the last day of the season when we were trying to fill all the party's tags. My sons going to be using that this year. If I don't go the Vintage route I'll use my Grandfather's 20 GA Mossberg bolt action, which is more than adequate here in Eastern Iowa, where the deer are big and the distances are close.

Paul,

Thanks, I should have considered the pumpkin ball route. I'll measure my chokes and send you a PM. According to the pellet count numbers on the tubes, it should be choked Modified and Improved Modified, so hopefully one of your ball sizes will work. I'll stick my dent remover in the muzzles.

Regards
Ken

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
