I was on a turkey trip in E.WA (see "first turkey" on turkey page), and I saw this grouse in a tree. I had my 3" mag, and a full choke, and he dropped like a stone. I have no dog, and he was just lying there in the snow. I hit him so hard that I didn't even have to wring his neck. He was at about 15 yards. One more species to add to the list.
