Shaun_300 Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Re: happy new year all depends on the range.... i'd use a 20ga #6 shot, or 12ga #6. i use both 12ga and 20ga for partridge (ruffed grouse) hunting up here and i always use #6 shot. we dont have pheasents in my area.... unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waterfowler_gal Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Re: happy new year Either a 20 or a 12 gauge is appropriate I think... I would probably use an over and under. They got any chuckers there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carbonhunter Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Re: happy new year You will lose pheasents more often than ya think....jonny rooster is one tough bird. I've seen them do some amazing things after getting swatted with some pretty heavy stuff. The only way is to get on those birds as fast as ya can.
