I believe that is a Sporting Clays Classic Model. You could verify that simply by asking the seller if it's stamped 'ISC' on the barrel flats and if the muzzles are slightly flared (to accommodate the screw-in chokes of the time period in which they were produced). If it indeed is a SCC it will also be roll stamped on the left barrel as having 2 3/4" chambers, but the chambers will likely measure 3".
I agree with Big D that it does look like a crack on the right cheek.

According to this article written by Gene Hill on the Sporting Clays Classic, this model was designed for the use of steel shot providing you don't use tighter than a Modified choke tube. With the quality of today's steel shot loads that are available is there any reason to shoot the $3-a-pop non-toxic loads in a Repro designed for steel?

Eric,
I'm sure there are other Parker members who will reply also. As I'm sure you know, a 2 3/4" load is plenty for ducks and the SC models will fit your needs. I have a 3" Repro with Briley aftermarket thin walled screw in chokes. I went with this choice as a stock/forend and double trigger configuration. It is convenient to have 3" chambers but not necessary in my opinion. My gun gets plenty of use and a delight to have in the blind. Good luck on your quest. Best Fishes, Steve Kleist Ely, MN |

I'm with Steve on this one, I rarely shoot ducks with anything but 2 3/4 anymore and have good success. I used to think I had to shoot 3 inch at them but once I started shooting guns that actually fit me and threw good patterns I figured out I didn't need it. I do sometimes shoot heavier 1 3/8 or 1 1/2 ounce loads when on a pass shooting venture and the ducks are 50 yards plus.
That being said, I've got a Super Fox that's back from the stocker and needs some action. I've got a couple cases of the 1 5/8 Kent TM loads for it, those should be a dandy long range choice.

I am under the impression that all repro barrels fixed or screw in are steel shot compatible.
Is that correct? |
