Great stuff, thanks for the loads . I have some O buck and some #1 , I will load both up and see what they do .. I have a great buffered #1 buck 12 pellet 16ga load if you are interested , it is not low pressure though .

Thanks for the offer but I've already plunked one with my circa 1911 GH 16 gauge . Ten#1 buck and 21 grains of Unique with the Claybuster knock off of the WAA16 wad . Still have a few drilling a and a Fox A grade I'll try eventually 👍🏻

You know there was an NH 10 gauge on Gunbroker back around the end of March of this year . The gun looked to be a decent shape other then the fact that the barrels had been lessened 2 1/8" . I had all intentions of bidding on the gun and when I do I wait until the last 20 minutes of the auction . The auction was scheduled to end the day after I arrived home from the Philippines . And me being me I fell asleep about an hour before the auction was to end . And I later saw it received one bid and sold for $425 if my memory is correct . That guns was virtually sans chokes and woulda been perfect for my smoothbore buckshot/slug stuff .

Here are pics of the gun I saved from the GB auction .

Woulda been a touch nicer if the NH had been on a #2 frame , well atleast for what I was interested in the old gun . But since I failed to bid it makes no difference now .

Hope you don't do what this fellow did. I couldn't resist taking a picture.

This was out here. But it would have provoked great fun parked in a suburban Connecticut mall.

Very rarely does a deer make it in the back of my pickup . At my house they get hung and turned into pieces . If at my gunsmith buddies they also get hung and turned into pieces . No need in Virginia anymore to take them to the check station . Call it in or check it via the net .
