Re: Mauser SBT gun

Cool! I love seeing SBT's that are just a bit out of the norm; interesting gun.

Re: Which one would it be???

I love my 16's and am a 16ga guy through and through. That said, I have a 20ga 28" Sterlingworth, a 20ga 26" A Grade and even an old Ranger (Stevens) 5100 28" 20ga. I used the A Grade on SD wild pheasants last fall and it performed just fine! There ain't NOTHING like a small-bore Fox ...

Re: It's gotta be the gun...

Phil; We all know the J can do the job if held by the right shooter so give yourself a little pat on the back. Do you care to share your scores? Nothing to brag about really; just pretty good for my mediocre abilities. If I'm 20/25 or above I'm pretty happy, especially from the handicap line. No 25...

It's gotta be the gun...

I'm not a great trap shooter, but I have to say, this season has started out quite well for me, and this J Grade will da*n sure bust 'em!

Re: Which one would it be???

That's a tough one! It probably SHOULD be my 16ga Sterlingworth Ejector, 28" and 6-1/2 pounds, the first "good" shotgun I owned. But honestly it would probably be my 16ga A Grade, 28" and 6-1/4 pounds.

Re: Preferred Cases for various tasks

My wife gifted me the double case years ago; came from Galazan but I don't think they offer it anymore. The single case is from Browning...

Re: Preferred Cases for various tasks

Similar to folks above. I have a two-gun canvas long case for when I'm going any distance and might need a backup gun, and a single canvas long case for the range, etc. If I'm taking more than two I break them down into my old leg o' mutton cases; easier to pack and take up less room.

Re: Pheasant Fest 2025

This was my first one. Traffic was good at both booths I'm told. I know the Parker guys signed up several new members; don't know about sign-ups at the Smith booth. Yeah Daryl, and believe me it was hard :( !

Pheasant Fest 2025

Attended the show in Kansas City Saturday. Walked the show twice; similar to every other trade show (and I used to work them for a living!). Was surprised that there weren't Pheasant Fest t-shirts or hats or similar "souvenir" items for sale. It was cool to see and meet the dogs; I was a l...

Re: New to sterlingworth

That's not a lot of information to go on. Maybe spend some time looking at various grades, etc. here and try to identify what you're looking at. Once you have a better handle on the guns many folks here can offer suggestions, and you can go to the various gun selling sites (Gunbroker, etc.) to get a...
