Default Charles Daly 10 Gauge SxS

Went hunting in the Salt Marshes of Dulac, LA. Used 3" #3's 12 Gauge "Hevi- Shot Hevi-Metal" with "Little Skeeters" adapters. Thought all of you might enjoy a few pics.

That is quite the interesting pattern on the barrels.

Have you experienced any issues with shooting these steel shot loads through those barrels? How is the recoil from those shells, their advertised velocity is 1500 fps? I suspect those shells are at or near SAAMI max for pressure as well. Nice gun, nice take.

Rib Engraving says "Laminated", which it obviously is....I've always assumed it was "Bernard".

None at all...refer back to my post from last year which covers my impressions/findings when I first experimented with this shell...Felt recoil, I assume because I'm shooting 12 gauge in a 10 gauge barrel, is less than my 2-7/8" RST 10 Gauge #6 Lead loads.
