Barrel Check & Honkers
« on: January 14, 2012, 02:19:25 PM »
Always be sure their is nothing in your Barrel, mine was clean,but a wad most have gotten stuck. Had to borrow another gun later, finally had some big honkers come in. One was 9lb. the other was 12 lb.

WOW glad you are o.k, I would bet you are right. I have seen a couple other shotguns do just like yours. Most of the time it's because a wad got stuck behind or in the choke. You are lucky and I am glad you are o.k
