I had an 870 that absolutely REFUSED to fire Winchester shell. Maybe one of ten would fire.

Now I hunt turkey with a Mossberg 835 Ulti-Mag. Even killed a few deer with 3" #1 buckshot through it.

I have a scoped Remington 700 in .270 for the rifle shot.

Bowtech Guardian 70# and CSS Encore 60# compound bows for when I feel like throwing sticks at deer, or possum, turkey, whatever!

And I have an older S&W .357 wheel gun with a 6" barrel that I have on my side anytime I'm hunting.
