What's the gun for?

I would feel confident using a 410 judge on that shot.

Self defense, looks like she’s about to kick your ass!

Poor dumb little bird.  You see a picture like that, and you almost feel guilty hunting them.  Almost.

I'm thinking of getting a Taurus Judge and hunting grouse with .410, but the gun that I'm looking at has a 3" barrel. I want to make sure before I get it that I would be able to hunt with the 3" barrel. Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I believe you need a 4" barrel minimum to hunt ANYTHING in this state. I use a 22 pistol mostly for grouse but would use whatever handgun I had.

Come roam the high country in the corner....we have big Franklin fool hens that you can lierally kill with a club. I will only take one if I am starving for fear of becoming dumber by eating them.

Me too:

I have heard a 45 would clean a rabbit... but, wow, a grouse too. and you provided proof.
