I am seeking advice and counsel on this post. My friends and I have booked a 1,000 bird tower shoot thiscoming December. All of us shoot SXS's but I'm the only one with Parkers.

I plan to take 2 guns, one a 1889 or so 12 ga Damascus w/32 inch barrels. The barrels are .044 in each barrel at least 6 inches from both chambers. This Parker is build like a tank, tight on face, no issues what so ever.

These birds will be flying high (250 pheasants and 750 pigeons). This fine double is in excellent condition, I've had Brad B. go all over it and believe I've posted pictures of it. Not sure how heavy a load I should shoot. Any thoughts?
