My buddy thought it over 50 yds, but we didn't step it off. It was a little rough also, but someone wanted to buy it from me and I had no real attachment, so I sold it--that was about 30 yrs ago.

the 1 1/2 grade with leaf engraving was introduced in 1915, the 1919 catalog announced that the grade 1 was upgraded to the 1 1/2 engraving style, and the 1 1/2 was dropped.
this is a 1920 gun based on the serial number list in Walt Snyder's book and the grade is stamped as 1
these are 28" barrels, the chokes are marked 2 and 4 - so mod and full. They seemed to work well on clay birds when I tried it at the club
