This week, we’re taking a closer look at the Benelli 828U Field Nickel. An elegant over/under, the gun is a bird hunter's dream, with both the looks and performance needed to feel at home in any upland field. The gun's triggers reset when the top lever is pulled, rather than when the barrels are opened, for a consistent and smooth action every time. The gun's ejector system, meanwhile, is activated from the firing of a shell, which eliminates the need for linkages between the trigger group and fore-end. Learn more about this classic over/under in the video embedded above, hosted by Digital Associate Editor David Herman. MSRP: $3,199; benelliusa.com.

Coyote Tactics: Stay Flexible

The successful hunters I know do not get hung up on one tactic. They constantly float between strategies in an ever-changing hunting environment. Quite simply, they’re flexible.

When that occurs, I continue the hunt, but modify my strategy to fit the scenario.
