A 16 gauge Winchester model 12 shooting #1 buckshot.
We were running dogs and jumped a decent little buck. Another fella missed him 5 times and we cut him on the next crossing. He had probably 10 head of high strong walkers on him and he just stepped out in the old logging road and stopped. I guess it was meant to be. I shot one time and hit him pretty good. He ran about 50-60 yards and piled up.
That day solidified a love of running dogs I still have to this day.
I would sure nuff would like to have one of those model 12s
I would love to have that one back. It was stolen in '98 when mom and dads house was broken into. I still look for it in every pawn shop or gun store I go in. Speaking of that, if anyone has or sees a model 12 16 gauge with a solid rib on the barrel and the serial # 757546, I'd sure like to have it back. I bought another one, but it's not the same.
