Guns headed to Sumtoy!

Post by alabamabowman »

I mailed off my Yildiz .410 to be cut down, choked , and custom base installed. Also, sent my Franchi 48al 28 gauge to have base installed. Excited for turkey season to get here so I can join that ".410 Club".

I'm interested in hearing about the cut down results. You may have a hard time hunting with anything else after using that 3# gun.

I killed 2 birds last year with the 28 gauge. I was pumped. Gonna try Hal's new 1 5/8oz load for it. May never go back to the 20.

Mine was sent for the same activities a week ago. I look forward to rigging it out. What length are you going with on the barrel?

I have the Hatfield and not a yildiz, so I'm interested to see how the final product performs.

I shot 9s last year in the 1 1/2oz load. Getting 250 in the 10" if I remember. Even through 20".
