View Full Version : Hello!



Mr. 16 gauge

Just found the forums, so I thought I would sign up. I'm an avid wingshooter/bird hunter; spend most of my fall chasing waterfowl. I am one of those who prefers red-headed step children, i.e. cartridges most people don't really care about. Some of my favorites are the 16 gauge (obviously! :lol: ), the 6.5x55 Swede, and the .38 Super. I am also interested in traditional muzzleloading. Spend a lot of time at the reloading bench....my last project was working up some buffered 16 gauge turkey loads and 12 gauge slug handloads.
In addition to firearms/outdoor related projects, I also enjoy dog training, vegetable gardening, and do-it-yourself projects.

Welcome to the forum. My first shotgun was a Fox 16 double barrel that took a lot of pheasants and rabbits....of course that was about a 150 years ago but it was a sweet little popper.

Now that you're here take a look around and then join MGO. Got a great deal going with Firing Line now.

Glad you "dropped in". I'd love to get with you for some goose hunting. Got into that about 10 years ago and love it. Wish I'd of done it years ago. I've got decoys, blinds, and can call fairly well. Get us a field or small pond and I'm ready!!!

Welcome, Mr. 16 gauge. I started off with a 16 ga. myself. A Mossberg (?)bolt action.
