Wow! That's hard core. I never cast my own slugs. Some Parkers shoot slugs remarkably well and others don't. My grandfather took a lot of deer with his DHE 28" modified and full long before I came along. I also took many deer with it in my teens. That was a 60 yard gun with both barrels, even with the standard bead. I once told a friend how good the gun was with slugs and he doubted it. He paced off 60 yards and stuck his license holder in a tree and told me to hit it. He was amazed when the back tag went flying off the tree shooting off hand. I aimed a bit high and a bit to the right because the right barrel crossed a bit to the left at 60 yards. I sure was proud of that old 1916 Parker.
