short 10 loading error
 

apparently I did not read my own thread of 1-28-18. Instead of adding a 1/2' spacer to the MEC setup for 2 7/8" shells I added a 1/4" spacer. A 2 3/8" 10 gauge would indeed be a short 10. By the way, the 2 5/8" shells shoot very well. Jim Garrett

So far we have 94 shooters of the "Short Ten" among us.

I love the short 10 for pass shooting geese. And the best thing is that my 10's handle #2's reasonably well for long range geese. I much prefer #3's but I haven't been able to get that shot size since Herter's went out of business many years ago. I have never owned a 12 bore that shot #2's worth a damn.

Six months ago I did not have a 10 and swore I’d never own one because it would be one more thing to load for. Now I have three: a NH-grade, a grade 3 and a WC Scott. What fun they are.

I too have 3,Two NID super 10's and a EH 2 frame parker, I do like shooting the 10;s a few times a year :rolleyes:

I shoot a 2 5/8" 10 gauge lifter. Is that considered a super-short 10?

Yes

Put me down, shot the lifter last week and the 73 Clabrough yesterday. They are more fun than well you fill in the blank.

Very early $150 grade lifter, the first known Parker Hinge Pin Gun, and a massive english heminway’s new model, 32” hammergun........hammering the South Texas Turkey population!!
