Where can I read about this conversion? My Davenport eight is one fine gun, better than the H&R, and it will get more use when I reactivate my eight gauge loading equipment after my recent move.

You would need to contact ED Hubel on the accuratereloading forum .
He has built some pretty crazy guns . And has done alot of proof testing and load development for modern 8 gauge loads . I never had my h&r 10 gauge open up when firing but the EC Green 10 ga double I had would do that all the time .
Ive always wonder how those 16 gauge on 20 gauge sxs are built and why that is possible but most people considered a 8 on 10 ga frame not possible . Seems going from a 20 ga to 16 is a bigger jump than 10 to 8 ga.
