Thanks, Karl. Makes sense. I can deduce that you are a serious shotgunner, wheh you use term "muscle memory"- out of the Chris Batha playbook. 90% of my shotgunning nowadays is either incomers, or quartering away birds-mainly pass shooting on waterfowl. Haven't missed a grouse in the last 20 some years, because that's about how long it has been since I hunted them. A good well trained pointing dog, a fine small bore side-by-side, and a good trusted friend to share the coverts with- RWTF
