I shoot the nova pump. 3 1/2" 12 ga. I hunt ducks and geese in cold wheather and the pumps never seem to mind the cold like the autos.
The dog is a pure bred golden retriever from the gold rush bloodline.

Re: Trucks in the snow.

Nice! I didnt know the autos had troubles in the cold? My old Mossberg 500 has never let me down! I don't hunt, (except to keep starlings and robins out of the fruit trees) but on each side of my farm there are hunt clubs, so all the geese take shelter in my cornfield! Sounds like a nice dog, I love goldens

Re: Trucks in the snow.

I like how this turned into a dog thread =] I love dogs, and your lab looks great. My mom just convinced me that she needed another one, so we picked up a Golden Retriever/Standard Poodle mix (AKA golden-doodle) shes 5 months old now and loves the snow

Re: Trucks in the snow.

The only time the stepper has seen snow was in Oregon. I doubt it will see much more of it here!
