hily 380 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Looks like time well spent Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paddywoodcock 0 Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 Looks like time well spent Using a little caliber is great some days and some other you will miss a lot... Getting a couple of pheasants is a nice result. I am only jealous but what are you doing for a living to be shooting during the week ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

David 9 Posted November 26, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 A couple of my mates call them girly guns but they cant hit anything with a 12 bore anyway ! Good little guns, you earn your kills more I think with the 410. Shot a couple of rabbits and mr ratty last night with mine. Cant see myself being without one... Never shot an o/.u 410 like, bet its light as a feather ? its really light dixyhmr i think my 12 will be getting left in the cabinet for a long while now as the 410 does what i want for mooching about with the terrier Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone knows you can't hit a snipe with a four-ten. On a serious note, I am very selective about when I use one. I am more concerned about crippling and not recovering birds than I am missing them.
