Always wanted a drilling, but was waiting until I found one with non-obsolete calibers. Safe to say, the second I saw this one, a JP Sauer and Sohn in 12GA-12GA (2-3/4ā€) and 222 Remington (and a scope no less), I snapped it up quick. Handloaded my first batch of 222 a couple hours later. Excited to test it out next week and see how it shoots!

A shotgun with a scope? What sorcery is this????!?!?

(I realize this is also a rifle, just hilarious to me that a shotgun has a scope)

Shotgun with a rifled barrel using sabots is rifle like accuracy up to about 200 yards. Many hunters have fed their families using a shotgun like this with a scope.

I thought it looked goofy as hell but it was free with the gun so I figured why not haha. Iā€™m thinking of putting it on see-through rings to use the scope for the rifle and the irons for the shot
