I am nevertheless searching for a good cost-effective 28 gauge shotgun that can be utilized for sporting clays and quail hunting. I have looked at all the possibilities, specifically the brownings. I can obtain them at about wholesale cost. This week although teaching a course known as instinctive shooting, a client showed up with a Ruger Red Label 28 gauge with .410 tubes. Right after the class I asked the client if I could shoot a round of skeet with his firearm and rapidly ran the field with a new box of Winchester HS loads. It had the shorter 26-inch barrel that commonly I do not care for. It was a joy to shoot. The client informed me that he taken this 28 to Argentina dove shooting for the final 5 years and it has in no way failed him. He also has a Browning Citori lightning in 28 that he also likes. However the Browning had mechanical issues last year and he nonetheless did not have it back from the shop. I asked him how a lot of rounds he figures he has place by way of his Red Label and his answer really shocked me. He stated that his ammo bill final spring was a little above $three,000.00 or about 9000 rounds. He felt that he had shot about 42,000 rounds in the gun over the final 5 years of dove and pigeon shooting. The tiny 28 still looked to be in very excellent condition.

Immediately after listening to his dissertation, I showed him my 12 ga Red label that has far more than 20,000 rounds by way of it. The bluing on the back of the trigger guard is extended gone. I use it for the class I teach and occasionally for sporting clays. Last year right after a couple of rounds of sporting clays a crack began to run from the tang down into the pistol grip. I was devastated as the wood on this specific gun was very excellent indeed. Reluctantly I named Ruger just just before Christmas and was told to send it right right after new years. So shortly there right after I packaged it up and sent it off asking yourself if I would ever see it once again. Effectively 13 days later it was back with new wood and new firing pins and springs. I was elated but the very best portion was all the operate was accomplished for free of charge. Hey Free of charge is excellent I mean this is a ten year old gun! So right after shooting an additional round of skeet with the tubes removed and only dropping a single bird, I am thinking that I may well contemplate going with the Red Label. Nonetheless, I will look for a gun with 28 inch barrels. I am not sure if I will spring for the 410 tubes but I may in the future. I nonetheless like the Browning but at half the price tag and twice the service, I am giving the Red Label a closer look.

Over the years I have seen or heard lots of negative feedback regarding the Red Label. Nevertheless, I have come to realize that most shotgun shooters have lots of opinions but quite little expertise when comes to picking a firearm. I am just as undesirable as I occasionally read articles about firearms written by individuals who really have no in depth expertise with that particular firearm.

Last Saturday I occur to run into the one of Presidents Guides on the range and guess what he had in hand, a Ruger Red Label in 28 gauge. It had lots of field and handling marks on the receiver and wood. I asked him if he liked it, He just looked down at it shrugged his shoulders and stated effectively its no longer pretty but often operates I guess that kind of says it all doesnt it. silencers
