On a related note, does anyone know how did Parker and others choke buckshot guns to group best with buckshot? I suppose factory letters may have referenced that at times, if anyone bought Parkers for deer hunting, and I have to guess some did.

A friend had a 1889 Remington 10 bore that was stamped on the lug 12-00, where you would see the shot numbers, which we both thought meant 12 double-ought buckshot. He used it as a turkey gun and did quite well with it shooting regular size shot.
