    I plan on getting the 20 gauge compact this Saturday. Thank you for the range report!
    Any issues since you made this video with it?

      I have not had 1 single problem.
      Honestly the little shotgun has really grown on me over the last months.
      It is my go to gun for just outings. Anytime we go out for an outing, hike, dog walk, family adventure, I carry the little shotgun.
      Super Handy Gun

      Hi Buddy
      So far I have had zero issues - all good.
      It is still a really new rifle thought - has not been fired all that much yet.

    Gotta love the echo of that 20 gauge report.

    • @secondgrowthhomes
      @secondgrowthhomes  10 місяців тому

      It is a nice sounding round.
      There is a great echo at this location - off the high surrounding mountains and cliffs.
      Sometimes whales will breach, or make loud noises, and the sound will echo around the mountains.

    I’ve watched 100’s of videos on the 301 both in 20 and .410 and have yet to find a bad review… the only gripes were with the stock red dot… other than that, 4-5 stars all day long and I will be purchasing one for sure!

    Great shotgun. Is that a shooting range or your land?

    • @secondgrowthhomes
      @secondgrowthhomes  9 місяців тому

      This is the shooting "range" area in the small community Tenakee Springs, Southeast Alaska.
      It is an informal affair, but everyone in town shoots out here at this same spot.
      I do not believe the city owns the beach below the tideline, so maybe actually a mix of city and state lands.
      We have been super happy with 20 gauge savage.
      It is a fun little capable shotgun - It feels great in your hands, and is just easy and Fun to Shoot.
      Thank you for commenting buddy!!!

    ANY shotgun will shot slugs, as long as it is not too tightly choked. Use an Improved Cylinder or wider choke for best results.

    Great video my friend.
    People should learn to appreciate the simple things that make life worth living. Telling you what you need to do? So easy to talk about something that they don't know shit about, living in a real rural area with no luxury of gun stores or limited access to firearms is not easy.
    To all of you with a degree of ignorance please move to Alaska and tell us what is going to happen to you.

    Buy a Rifled choke tube for it. Shoots great.

      That is Great -
      I have an older stevens, single shot 12 gauge, and I thought it would be real fun to try a smaller 20 gauge.
      It is a fun size shell to shoot.
