Gonna be using my new Buckmark this year, my wife just gave it to me tonight for our 1 year wedding anniversary! I'm super stoked, I saw this model with the aluminum bull barrel about a long ago on sale cheap, and didn't get it.

Anyone use a Browning Buckmark?

See my earlier post. Best little grouse gun I've ever owned. Accurate as hell and fun to shoot.

Im cant wait! Gonna be trying out my new .22/.410 over under! Its a funky little gun made by Chiappa. Nothing too fancy but its fun as hell to shoot!

That aluminum barrel buckmark is beauty. I also love shooting grouse with my bull barrel MK IV ruger. I have a thing for 22's!
The deer are exactly where you find them, and no where you dont!

I've taken more grouse with a Ruger Mark II target model than any other weapon, second would be archery with a 1/2" washer behind a field point (poor man's judo).  A fair number with shotgun, a few with a .30-06 (crosshairs just above the head, otherwise you'll blow it up).  One each with my everyday carry .380s, a Ruger LCP and Sig P238.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

First 1 of 2017. As blues love to do he flushed and flew to a nearby tree. Popped him in the lower neck on the 2nd shot at about 50 yds.

Anyone use a suppressed .22?  I'm thinking that would be the ultimate grouse getter.

Not yet, but hopefully soon.  Planning on taking my 22/45 with red dot and suppressor along for the ride this fall whenever I can get out.

Never owned a shotgun till this year. My dad started me at 8 with a marlin mod 60 and I killed everything with that gun till I bought a buddy's savage MKII and killed em with that till a few years ago. Now I've got a Chiappa 22/410 that took 2 dozen last year. 3 this year.
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen
