Certainly not my biggest but rewarding never the less.
I slipped out of work yesterday afternoon and headed out for our opening day shotgun season. I was set up in a dead fall of a shelterbelt over looking an alfalfa field. A storm front was moving in rapidly and the thunder had the birds gobbling like crazy! After waiting about four hours, a group of six came wondering by and I decided to touch off some 3F powder. When the smoke cleared, this guy was laying still and his buddies were headed for cover.

I'm really liking this old shotgun!:way:

I guess those are merriams out there where you are?

I've got Merriams, Rio's, and Easterns here. Most are more than likely hybreds but look like their given species.
I spoke with a biologist with the NWTF a couple years ago and he said as far as they are concerned, if it looks like a Merriam, it is one.
