No. 6 !! crikey mate, never knew that you can use a No.6 for that. Thanks :-) /s/

So after decades of discuss on this topic (all over the world) , is it now safe to declare that a .177 is the best of the calibers (.177, .20,.22,.25)? /s/

Good bag :-) what No. cartridge did you use to take out the fox? thanks /s/

Thanks mate.

er. don't forget the nuts

What about firing a 3" in a 2/34" is that safe or risky? Thanks /s/

I'm Guessing you wouldn't have fired if it was two gals "helping each other out" :-) /s/

The very thought of having the "Jewels" clipped gives me the jitters. Hats off to those of you who had the Ba//$ to do it :-) /s/

Thanks Andy, Im pretty sure that there is no ',' or' .' between the numbers. It specifically says CHOKE 182. I shall try to post some pics as soon as i see the weapon again. Thank you. /S/

anyone ?

Lovely shot mate.

Thank you all for the warm welcome :-) John

Sorry for the late reply chaps. Bangalore to be more specific. boomstick - Expat- as in - Anglo Indian?? No. The hunting scene is still pretty much the same here. But good thing is lots of old antique firearms lying all over the country :-) /S/

Hi, I have just seen a Geco 12 bore DBBL hammer shotgun in very good condition. The markings below the barrel have CHOKE 182 mentioned below it - any idea what kind of choke that is. Also how is the performance of this gun. If anyone has any pictures to share that will be nice. John

Hi, I am John from India. This is a lovely site here and i hope to both learn and contribute :-) Sadly hunting is banned in India for almost all the animals and birds except Crows / Rooks and Rats . So thats happy hunting for us :-) John

A springer should not be left cocked for more than a few mins. A gas strut on the other hand can be left cocked for a few days also that shouldnt cause any damage. John

A well placed chest shot and the bird will drop without much suffering. John
