Early Secret Santa Gift

[Maxhunter]

Well I’ve always wanted an O/U and my nice wife’s bought me one. It’s a Weatherby 20ga. I can’t wait to shot some pheasants with it.

Ahhhh come on, just a picture of a box?????

What were you doing? Snooping around to see what she bought you?

We want to see the shotgun...

Here’s some pictures. It comes with three chokes (full, modified, and improved modified). Also what’s chokes would you guys recommend. I’ll mainly be hunting quail and pheasants. Boy it’s light at 6lbs. It’ll make carry in the field a dream.

JimP my wife bought it for me since my birthday was the 22nd of this month and I knew she bought it because it appeared on our credit card email.

I have a Ruger Red Label 20 with improved and modified chokes on the barrels.

It is a pheasant killing machine, once I learned how it shot. My previous shotguns all had full chokes on them.

I also have a Red Label in 20 ga. I would use the full & modified for Pheasants (Mod first & full second) and the Mod & Imp Mod for Quail (Imp Mod first & mod second). I am assuming it is also chambered for 3". When I use mine for Peasants I use 3" 6 shot and it really does a great job.

I don't know what I want to know more about: where to get such a gun or such a wife?? My wife hates my hobby, although we have no conflicts in everything else. She doesn't like guns and calls me a murderer every time I bring home a new gun. It's annoying, but none of us can fix it. I've shown her the gun several times as a birthday gift option. But after that, she gives me a basket of different kinds of chocolate, even though I don't eat them. So you are lucky, congratulations!
