Hey Dave,

I just saw your last post, and I have to tell you that you are far more serious about your shotguns than I. Considering your mention of carbon fiber barrels, stepped steel liners, forcing cones and all the other stuff, I feel a bit like a clod. To tell the truth though, if you gave me one of those two or three thousand dollar guns to use, I bet I still would not hit more than thirty in sporting clays. I do hit more with my auto than I do with my pumps though, but I still like my Ithaca pumps, too.

Thanks again folks,
Dave Wile
