I'm a firm believer that any wingshooter worth his salt and wanting to have a fantastic small bore cartridge in his arsenal should own a 28ga. Watching your turkey hunts and thinking about early season teal and dove hunts made me jump into it and what a sweet little cartridge it is. I love my 10 bores and I believe one of the best duck guns ever is the SBE 3, but damn, a 28 bore is just the sweetest little darling for close in work. A gentleman's bore for sure. Great video once again, Matt. 59 more sleeps until it all starts again; the 28 is hungry.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Thanks man! Less than two months to go!

@fullstrapoutdoors9154 2 года назад

Ahhh ours dont start till October 23rd

@BeatRock253 2 года назад

And now the 28 ga is going to available in SBE 3 ☺️

@cfoutdoors243 2 года назад

One problem is people think they need big bore shotguns for waterfowl. Sub 12 gauge will kill anything you want. Glad you like the 28 so much. You had great success last season with the 28.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Thanks man!

@NC-xk1eg 4 месяца назад

Got 2 of them. Love them! The Stevens 555E is spectacular. Everyone who has shot it falls in love with it. Plenty of ammo now.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 4 месяца назад

Agreed!

@duckbrian7973 2 года назад

If possible can you maybe try for pheasant using the boss/ 28 gauge. For birds I think that might be the last “tough” to harvest bird. This journey keeps getting better. Thanks Matt.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Planning on it. Just didn't work out last year.

@joemama163 8 месяцев назад

Have used the #5 Win. SuperX (which were easy to find) in my 28 for pheasants last year and it knocked them down at 30yds just fine. The lighter gun weight of the 28 is also nice for a day of tromping around in the field.

@chadd587 4 месяца назад

@@joemama163you're right. I think there's a lot of off the cuff assumptions about the 28 because it's simply not a 20 or 12. It's equally as deadly at range. You just have to be accurate and know your pattern

@ozark_trapper 2 года назад

Get a mec 600 jr mark 5 28ga reloader. Load your own load what size shot u want. I bought one before i got my tristar g2 viper 28ga. Been loading up #6 . And a few #5 for squirrel hunting. Planning on crow hunting with mine this winter. Load up some 7.5 or 8 shot for them.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Good advice

@ozark_trapper 2 года назад

@@HighPrairieSportsmen i started watching your videos after finding them last fall. I was looking up hunting with 28ga. You walk into my reloading room. One size has rifle/pistol. Other sized has mec 600 jr mark 5 in 410, 28, 20, . And a mec sizemaster 12ga reloader. Only ammo i buy is 22 22 mag . I just got a 17 hmr. Been buying ammo before i got the gun. How i got my 28 ga hulls. I bought factory ammo in Winchester AA ammo. And some super speed ammo. I bought some federal top gun ammo. The first reload on the hulls. Some has little cracks by crimp. Not buying anymore of them.

@zclausuwsp 8 месяцев назад

I have a tri-star 28 gauge as well! What choke tube have you been using with the boss ammo?

@HighPrairieSportsmen 8 месяцев назад

Carlson's Mod usually

@joshuaborchardt2475 10 месяцев назад

ever try the 3/5 duplex loads? I use them in my 12ga for ducks, geese, and pheasant and absolutely love it. Been debating between the 4s or 3/5s to get a case of with my 28.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 10 месяцев назад

I have. Used 3" 3/5s on geese last year with success.

@traviscochran6280 Год назад

Alot of the reasons you list are reasons I started using a .410. It's easier to carry and shoot with my bad shoulders. I just couldn't take the number of shots during dove season with the 12 gauge anymore. I saw a .28 gauge 870 at the local shop and I think it may be the ticket for waterfowl. The .410 is a little thin in the pattern at 30 yards.

@HighPrairieSportsmen Год назад

Yep, 28 gauge is great for consistent waterfowling

@frankchance557 2 года назад

Been shooting my 20 more than my 12 for the last season. I see Tristar is now selling one in 16 gauge……very interesting….

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

The subgauges are more fun in my opinion. A 16 ga would be cool...

@la_old_salt2241 2 года назад

I've killed more doves and duck with my older Remington 11-87 16ga than any other shotgun I own. Now, the ducks were years ago when lead was still legal for them, but I'm looking at getting back in the game with the sub gauges. Nice job Matt.

@talisikid1618 2 года назад

A16 & a 28 would be all you need. With lead bigotry on the rise, they need to go to 3.25/3.33” shells. 12/20 are way over hyped. And I own both. Need the 24 too.

@josephmeeks990 2 года назад

What choke do you use in your 28 gauge? I have a Remington 870 wingmaster in 28 gauge, haven't shot any ducks with it yet, hopefully this season.

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

I use an IC and mod Carlson's. Also have a factory full. Like the modified the best.

@jdboswell3308 2 года назад

@jreed10291974 2 года назад

I have the Mossberg sa-28 the only thing I have hunted with it is Dove, Squirrel and rabbit. I find with the right choke and 3/4 ounce of #6 it's no different than my 20 gauge kills them dead out to 50 yards.

You do understand that 28ga shoots just as far as 12ga. 1350 fps goes exactly the same distance.

@HighPrairieSportsmen Год назад

Did I say it didn't? The shot goes the same distance. There's less shot which means bigger holes in a pattern farther out.

@deerslayer440 2 года назад

Does it jam much?

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Not often. Only had issues with Boss shells in it. Going to get the barrel cleaned out to fix that hopefully

@riverrivers250 2 года назад

How far is the typical shot u take? 20yards to 30yards or what

@HighPrairieSportsmen 2 года назад

Generally 10-25 yds. Farthest I've shot with it was 35 or so.

@chadd587 4 месяца назад

I don't understand the in close mindset for the 28. TSS is 1.5 to twice the weight of lead. #5 lead is equivalent to 9 or 10 tss. Same weight but a ton more pellets that maintain their velocity. It shoots just as well just as far as a 20. If velocity is equal, the lethality is equal to any size bore

@mythbuster6014 Год назад

Most waterfowl are taken within 30 yards no matter the gauge.

@HighPrairieSportsmen Год назад

That's a good range for sure. But there's those that like to shoot far consistently. A 28 gauge is not for them

@mythbuster6014 Год назад

@@HighPrairieSportsmen I shoot a 12 gauge and use regular 2 3/4 inch 1oz number 2 steel shot. You don't need 3 or 3 1/2-inch shells. BTW not too many hunters can consistently kill birds at 50 yards plus. If you can't knock down 3 geese with 3 shots they're too far.

@HighPrairieSportsmen Год назад

@@mythbuster6014 I'm agreeing with you. But there's quite a few that think they can shoot that far. My personal philosophy is to get them as close as possible.
