I've never owned an Ithaca Mag 10 but had 7 or 8 Super 10's including several I've disassembled for study. The stock head bearing on the Super 10 is adequate although relatively small in surface area, and I wouldn't be surprised if the Mag 10 has a wider frame. Maybe Dave can round up a caliper and measure the width of the back end of both frames?

The Mag frame is certainly longer .

"Looks like" doesn't cut it. Milton has a very curious mind, brings up some great ideas, but he needs to invest in a Vernier caliper and give up on the "Looks like". Parker made 3 1/2" chambered tens before the advent of the Super X loads. I have a #6 frame PH that letters as a factory 3 1/2" gun and I'm sure they made a few #3 frame 3 1/2" guns before the Remington era also. I'm not sure if my #6 frame ten PH predates the Super X loads. I have seen 10 gauge Damascus barrel English guns that went through nitro proof with modern 3 1/2" shells also.

I no longer own a Magnum-10. Bought mine at a little shop in Brunswick, Maine. Fifteen years later, having never hunted with it, sold it to the Hartman Brothers at the Harrisburg, PA, Fairgrounds show, and the last time I saw it, Steve Lamboy had it in the ICD tent at Sandanona a couple of years later.
In the standard NID receiver the "box" portion of the frame is the same size from .410-bore to Super-10. Just the height and width of the standing breech and the firing pin spacing increases. |
