My Remington SP-10 has arrived! but no 10G shells...so... that will have to wait. So, I made a hasty bid.. and ended up winning the shotgun. The problem is that is listed as a 24" barrel. (i.e turkey gun). I was recently out bid on a 26" barrel on ebay.... [mad] I am still looking for a long barrel, but do NOT want a 30" barrel. So, if I can not find a 26" or 28", is there any ballistic reason to goose hunt this? I am not interested in an opinion on why would I want a 10 vs another guage...etc...
I might never need or use this, but after the last time I went snow goose hunting, I swore I would never go with a 12 again. I also am planning a trip to St Paul, and go after King Eiders... Some people claim you have to take long shots on those birds. I also know how durable eiders are... so this might be a tool for that job. For St Paul... I will be using Hevi Shot... no matter the gun. But it will be a goose gun primarily. So, does a 24" 10 make since as a goose gun?
BTW- the camo on this was ugly as sin...so.. that had to change!
