Jay, BTW I like your new to you 16. I also have 16 VH from 1907 it is numbered 144842. It has 28 inch barrels on 1 frame choked modified and full.
Use it mostly for dove hunting and continental pheasant. Killed a high tailing pheasant dead as a hammer using lead #6 in 1 ounce load. Estimated it was about 50 yards when I shot but landed about 80 yards away when we picked it up. Probably a lucky shot but still that left barrel can reach out and touch them.
