In my vintage side by sides, always RST or very light factory loads, around 1150 FPS max. For the Model 21, anything I would shoot in any modern gun.

"For the Model 21, anything I would shoot in any modern gun."

Now that's the way I feel about my Parker SBT's.

Those SBT’s were built stout to withstand repetitive competition shooting. If I had one I’m sure I would feel the same way about it.

John, have you ever seen a Parker SBT that was shot loose?

Not yet. But I'm working on it.

When I was a teenager, we saw Parker singles that were very shaky from long hard use. Apparently, most ATA shooters were acquainted with many gunsmiths who could address that problem. Today, not so much. I have never had a loose Parker single, but I tend to collect higher condition guns. I have never seen an Ithaca Knick that was any more than "broken in".

Bill, I agree. But a Knick just doesn't look or feel as good as a Parker. IMHO

I tried hitting the thumbs up ten times but it only allows once.

John much like Bill, my SC single has been digesting 2 3/4 dr 1 1/8oz Gold Medal Paper shells since the late 1970's and I have not noticed any wear in the action. I also shoot my 7E Ithaca "nick" quite often and it is still bank vault tight. great thread!!!!:)
