dogdoc Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 I don't think I could handle a single shot 10g. Benelli M2 3" BBB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
total disaster Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 I don't think I could handle a single shot 10g. Benelli M2 3" BBB its just the bang LOL I honestly hate 12 ga for kick and I have 10 single BPS and gold and take them all over my sliver any day that being said IMO if you are hunting decoying birds and shots under 40 yards I use #2 or #3 only cause i can't get 4s yet...my theroy is the geese and eiders have very thick feathers which a small #2 bb would be able to penetrate easier then a large BB or BBB which would eat up alot of energy just in the feathers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dakota Posted September 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2010 its just the bang LOL I honestly hate 12 ga for kick and I have 10 single BPS and gold and take them all over my sliver any day Absolutely correct! I shot my first goose with my Dad's 12 ga. single with 3" BBB; the thing kicked like a stinkin' mule! It's really light of course, but I will never shoot that gun again. My single 10 is really heavy and kicks half as much as Dad's 12, just a real joy to shoot! Got my first kill with it this afternoon, too; a jet-liner sized Canadian gander coming into the dekes took a load of 3 1/2" 1 1/2 oz. BB anti-aircraft fire and crashed to earth! Pics and story to come later. Dakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
