I love the smell of burned powder..

..in the early afternoon. Took out the new shotgun, and remembered just how much I came to love how shotguns smell when fired. The plastic shot cup gives it a slightly different note than just brass and lead. Got a good whiff of it when I pulled the gun out of the case just now.

It's amazing just how fast it ate through a 25 round box of 7 1/2 shot, and 10 rounds of 00 buck on top of that. It fires right to point of aim, and with that full choke on there the cardboard was pretty well trashed after a few rounds. So far so good.
