- - Q1 vs IC in 28 Ga (https://parkerguns.org/forums/showthread.php?t=21886)

I shot a 5 stand round with RST 20ga spreaders in a Boss hammer gun which is tightly choked. They worked fine and maybe I broke some I wouldn't have otherwise. I have never hunted using them but that will change this fall as I have 2 16's that are choked IC/F.

I don't see why spreaders would be hard to fool with like Larry said just drop then in.

Me an elitest:eek: That's the funniest thing I've heard today (then again I haven't been out much today) I just believe that with todays loads we don't need to open the chokes on a fine old gun be it a Parker, Fox, Lefever or Smith. Would you take a Pre64 M70 in say 257 Roberts and rechamber it to say 257 Weatherby or a 270?

I’ve used spreaders successfully on game using a PR but, can’t recall having ever printed patterns on paper with PR barrels. Has anybody patterned spreaders using either IC/MOD or MOD/FULL chokes common to Reproduction barrels? (i.e.; PR barrels specifically)

*I did pattern a tightly choked German double using Spred-R’s at approximately 16 yds. A turkey woulda’ been able to fly through the gaps!

I have some RST 2.5" 7.5 lite and some 2.5" 7.5 spreader lite, I might do that next time I get out to shoot.

I've had no problems hunting with them.
