oohhhh yeah !!! took the day off. can hardly wait . grouse hunting is awesome as well. i have been saving for a trailer for hauling two four wheelers, however i looked at a little benelli 20 gauge auto last night and all i can think about is how nice it would be to show up to the dove shoot with that little beauty

I love dove hunting...this will be my 3rd year...it is such a blast...I've got a Vizsla pup that is almost a year old...we'll see how she does.

I also hve an old Benneli Super Black Eagle, bought it way back in 1996 and have fired litteraly thousands and thousands of rounds through it- everything from 1 ounce dove loads to 31/2" goose whackers and it has performed flawlessly. As for my little 20 gauge , when I first got it there seemed to be a burr or something in it where it ejects the shells cause it would hang up 2 or 3 times for every box of shells fired but after putting a few boxes of shells through it it has semed to wear in good and I no longer have any problems. Can't wait till Wednesday!
