Mike R, the problem you might run into with those heavier loads with higher MV is the possibility of damage to the head or wrist of the stock. If your barrels are solid they should be fine. Those older stocks could have soft wood or it could be dried and already cracked. Doesn’t take much if the wood is compromised to turn it into a repair situation. I shoot TSS shot through my modern turkey gun, do not use it in your vintage guns. That could damage your chokes.
