Pete, he did a great job!!!

I am quite pleased. I guess it is proof that you have to look beyond what you see if a gun appeals to you.

wow..... charlie

Amazing Pete! Hope to see this Remy soon.

Thanks, it is amazing Frank. It's not perfect but it is so much better. Let me know the next time you are coming up to shoot skeet, I'll bring it along with me.

I had a little luck with the Remington '94 10ga on Saturday morning. Geese are just starting to show up in these parts. Bill Janelle (R) and I only got one each but both birds were banded. Bill was shooting a very nice condition 30" NH from 1906.

I was shooting a reload of 1 1/4 ounce Bismuth #1.

nice going ...that old reamy is seeing double duty now..crows and now a goose gun..reckon she ll make a turkey gun this spring.. charlie

Pete, I have a 1882 Remington hammer gun in 10ga. She's a tad heavy - little over 9 #'s - barrels are thick. Must have been a goose gun. It was one made for the rifle barrel liner - the reason I bought it, but the liner was never found. There were four tapped holes in the rib for sights - two for and two aft that I plugged, and you can see the cut out area in the chamber where the liner would lock in place. A missing right main spring, extractor, and two hammers had to be replaced, but she's back in business. I just use it on the SC's course with Chamber Mates for 12ga but have on occasion shot 10 ga shells in it for fun. Wish I still hunted as I would love to take some game with it.

Forgot - my 94 F grade has the straight grip but the forearm was made by a trap shooter - looked like sh*t, so I had Brad make a new one. Had him make it like the one in Semmers book - a semi-beavertail forearm. I'm not a big fan of semi-beavertail forearms, but the gun looks really nice and shoots great. Also had a guy from Ohio that attends our SxS Shoots re-blue the barrels - turned out great - nice black barrels.

heh pete what kinda powder did you use in the goose load... charlie
