I like an open choked 12 ga.  with a short barrel.  My 26" barreled A5 Light with IC choke is perfect for grousing in the thick stuff. 

That said, my last spruce grouse was beheaded at 5 yards with a 50 cal muzzleloader and 370 grain maxiballs...  some guys say you can use a lighter bullet, but I like the punch of the maxi's...  :chuckle:

I killed a ruffed grouse once with a .54 cal 425 gr Maxi Ball......  :)

Great penetration with those Maxi Balls.......
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.
