MN December Pheasant Hunt
I know this wasn't a Parker but bear with me, it was still quite a feat. I was able to harvest a Minnesota December limit which is 3 roosters with a new to me 12 Gauge Pedersoli muzzleloading shotgun. My load was 82 grains (3 drams) of FF Goex under 1 1/4 oz of nickel plated #5's from Ballistic Products. The load proved effective.
This particular Pedersoli was built in 76 and is a lighter 12 gauge weighting 5 3/4lbs and has 27 1/2" barrels choked IC/M. I use felt wads to get them loaded through the choked barrels. The recoil isn't noticeable to me when hunting.
