    My go to Waterfowl gun is an A5 magnum!


    Shot 2 3/4" Score BB's, seem to work fine and easy to spot the blue hulls in the field. Use Kent 3" most of the time though!

    Glad you got her up and running Tony, I love mine with the 30" barrel I had opened to IM and the forcing cone re-done.

    So you haven't had any issues with your old shotgun since you opened up your choke???? I'm very tempted to do the same with an old model 12.

    Re: shells

    As Foxton said, have the gunsmith work on the forcing cone of your shotgun as well...way too many shotguns have really restrictive forcing cones.
