Any reccomendations for a good quality slate call?
I want one to hunt with, not sit on a shelf, so looks are secondary to performance and sound quality...

I have been seeing lots of birds in the fields lately.
I never get tired of watching strutting toms!!!

I agree, the 870 is the best pump gun made. I have bought and then later sold several other brands of shotguns. I own three 870's now and won't ever be selling any of them. Ah yes, the dreaded Remington 870......the gun you can shoot 365 days a year without cleaning it (minus a quick wipe with an oily rag) and it still continues to function like it did right outta the box! The best pump action shotgun out there.

that price seems a bit high to me.
200-250 is more like it for a used 870
I have an 870 supermag, with an indian creek choke and 3 inch hevi shot #6 shells it patterns with any gun out there.

I would:
1. get some video or pics if possible 2. leave before doing something stupid 3. call the ICO and press charges of hunter harassment
staying and confronting them is a horrible idea guys. They are going to have video rolling and try to dupe you into doing or saying something stupid that will find it's way to the news and internet.

No doubt the hunting video industry is VERY hard to get into with very low profit margins to be had. Two or three main players rule the industry and have other business units (clothing, calls, supplies, etc) to subsidize their video production. The video production ends up being a channel to market higher margin products rather a profit generating unit in itself. A small start up has little to no hope to compete with the major players. Like most on here, I don't know the story of what went into this decision to dissolve Hoosier Hit Squad. I do know that Matt Haase is a great guy and a passionate waterfowl hunter. He spent several hours helping me get started in waterfowl hunting. He has answered many questions and really did all he could to get me started. I wish him and his family all the best. Would guess that there are some business lessons to be learned from that deal. The hunting video industry is tough to break into, seems like most guys end up doing it for some sponsership deals and personal reasons in the end. What do I know, though? Getting in over your head and dragging others into it is not a good thing.

so true! Anything that starts with "Deer always......." or "Deer never......" is a myth.

The scumbag that shot this beautiful bird needs to be brought to justice.
If you have any information, call the Turn in a Poacher hotline at 1-800-TIP-IDNR

exactly, bore sight it, check the patterns in a sled, then hit the woods for the ONE shot I used to shoot a mossberg 835 3.5 inch gun, it was a hard hitter but tolerable I know quite a few guys that shoot 3.5" 870's. In a sled for patterning/sighting in, and the few number of shots you typically take while turkey hunting, it's not a big deal. Wouldn't want to dove hunt with it tho!
