what im referring too here is i own and have shot stevens lefevers colts itacas lc smiths remingtons wc claybroughs and sons and parkers and several other brands...of all these guns that ive shot in differant gauges at targets and patterened on paper i would have to choose a lc smith 10 ga..it is a 00 grade with extra full chokes...it patterns on paper better than any double gun ive ever shot or owned...only thing i cant under stand is that im using gauge mates in 12 ga and using the 3 inchremington nitro shell wih the 1 7/8 lead load in no 5 shot....this is my best shooter on paper that i have in a double....i hate too admit it but it will out shoot my belved 8 gauges with no 5 shot...but the 8 gauges do come into there being superior with large shot....what has been your gun for having the tightiest pattern on paper... all of us like to think that my gun will outshoot the next fellows..so my gun is the 10 ga lc smith what gun do you have that will out shoot mine.... charlie
