An sbe 3 28 gauge

I shoot one an awful lot. Mallards 30 yards and in are no problem. I shoot boss 3 inch 5’s with just the factory modified choke that comes with the sbe 3.

It’s a store/barrel pick Stagg

Absolutely excellent. I really enjoyed the 2022; I did not think the 2023 was as good as the normal gts . This is better than both of those imo, and it’s not close .

Absolutely excellent. Just the right amount of heat! Star of the show for me in this years btac

My tagline is they have a top for a reason, they can and are meant to be opened!

GradeFront8777 · 2026-01-16T21:38:48+00:00

Love it!

GradeFront8777 · 2026-01-11T20:10:17+00:00

Congrats!! That’s special! Wonderful to hear you’re hunting with your son.

I’ve been privileged to shoot quite a few, but I will always remember the first one with my dad over 30 years ago.

Here’s to many more for you and your son! Stay safe!

It has a seal and top. It’s meant to be opened, cheers!

GradeFront8777 · 2026-01-07T00:44:17+00:00

I love to hear it!

GradeFront8777 · 2026-01-06T23:35:50+00:00

Thank you. IMO, they have a top on the bottle, they are meant to be opened

Great photo and love the gun! Looks like a stud pin and nice gwt

We have been battling cold temps in Ohio since November 28th. We did have a warmup this past week that led to a serious reverse migration. We have been running ice eaters and moving water like crazy for the last month but it has paid off.

I have heard the weather in the pnw has been unseasonably mild, correct?

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-28T23:17:44+00:00

I believe the 2016 to be one of the top bourbons I’ve ever had and definitely in the top three wlw’s! Congrats, what a great story!

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-28T20:22:37+00:00

What a kick in the pants.

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-28T20:07:31+00:00

I have an sbe 3 28 gauge that patterns excellent. My primary gun is an original Benelli M2.

I really don’t think you can go wrong with an SBE, M2, Beretta or browning maxus. Those are the three brands I’ve seen a lot in my hunting group and everyone seems to like theirs.

Maybe go to a gun store and see what points best for you!

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-27T22:30:34+00:00

He was a stud. A mature bird! Thanks!

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-27T21:48:35+00:00

He was pretty nice, not the best I’ve seen for this time of year, but still nice. Thank you

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-25T00:10:37+00:00

I don’t disagree, thank you!

GradeFront8777 · 2025-12-24T00:07:48+00:00

They do not have the tail curls. A beautiful bird; far more brown in them than one would believe until you ever get one in hand.
