I shot a 23 in ATA trap this week with an 1879 NO 1 frame twist barrel Parker underlifter, choked IM in both barrels. I rotate from barrel to barrel shooting the Winchester AA low pressure loads with PB and 1 1/8 oz #71/2 shot. the Parker is 28 inches uncut.

I wonder how many other wall hangers need to be brought back to life with low pressure loads?

My load is similar to Robert's above. I use a full length 2 3/4" Federal paper hull and a standard star crimp. My load differs from Roberts in that I use a Federal wad and primer. Other parameters are identical. Measured pressure 6500 psi. Measured velocity 1150 fps
