Default 10 Gauge Double

After a month of no dove hunts I received the call to shoot the "lane" at a farm. I took Uncle Taylor's 1881 Lifter with Twist barrels which has .030 constriction in both barrels. The right barrel held an 1 1/4 oz of 7 1/2 shot SpredR load and the left barrel 1 1/8 oz of 7 1/2 four dram black powder load. I had a nice double in a stiff breeze which cleared the smoke enought to watch the bird tumble from the sky. I have not applied for a "doubles pin", but may do so as I was real happy with the 10 gauge double. I have been able to shoot all four family guns so far this season.
