Turnpike Boy,
Nothing like making a 800+ yard shot with the .375 H&H on a 7 point elk off the bluffs of Gravel Mountain there North of Jackson Hole. Now there's a head that's hung over my fireplace.

I probably have as many shotguns myself, been collecting Brownings made before 1936 for some time now, have 8 of them, 2 model 12s, one 12 and one 16, I shoot both of them well, got a 20 you want to let go????????it'll finish my set, also looking for a shooter 97....I'm kinda starting to get into the cowboy action shooting and need a 97 for the three gun competition......
I probably have as many 16s as 12s, started off with the Reimngton 1100 when I was a kid and have always liked the 16s..
I do most of my hunting with either an el cheapo spanish made over/under, but it's well balanced and I shoot it well,made some modifications to it,trigger job,ported barrels,and a few other little things, the other gun I use the most is a Beretta AL390, second sweetest shooter behind the 1100s, to me anyway..........
Most of my shotgunning is for ducks/geese and we have to use steel shot, so I don't use any of the older guns,wish I could...the model 12s are my small game guns, the 1100 16 gauge is mostly used for doves (we hardly have anymore quail around these parts) and skeet shoots.
