I just got a Parker VH in 12 ga made in 1920 on 1/1/2 frame . What would be a good non tox load to use for duck hunting? And a good load for clay shooting?

You can't go wrong with RST bismuth, no steel or any hard shot. Any light target load will do for clays, these guns were made well.

RST bismuth for sure. I would have the chambers measured first to see what length shell to use. Some guns in that era were chambered for 2 1/2” loads.
