Of late I've read opinions that Hunter Arms may have over-hyped its Long Range gun, but this student of Super-Foxes sees some subtle boring features in the Smith that go beyond just using a bore mike, calculating the choke constrictions, and yawning to learn the LR Smith is "only" choked something like 40 points as compared with 48-50 points or so for a typical Super-Fox. Back in the day Captains Askins and Crossman wrote well of the Super-Fox as well as the Smith Long Range in comparative testing. There had to be something going for the Smith. Once spring comes I'll be doing some patterning and penetration testing at distances and with lead and the current non-tox shotshells.
