Sure will Greg. First off this is my experience after shooting two original Parker 28's for 40+ years. My 26" VH measures .011/.20 and the 30" measures .012/.022. I believe that smallbores benefit from tighter chokes. That's just my observation. I know that a few members here have shot the 30" gun and shot it lights out. Just ask Chuckie B.

Now for the reason I say that. I have a high end 28ga o/u with choke tubes. I started out with .004/.013 and just wasn't happy with the target breaks or the lethality on live birds. I ended up screwing in .014/.026 tubes and it changed the whole complexion of the gun.

Once again this is just my opinion.
