Harry,

I have a dozen Parker 10's and none are choked over .040". If fact most are closer to .030". That Chain Damascus Elsie is tight!

PS: I also have a 1960 Beretta Silverhawk 3.5" ten which has been "opened up" to .040"!

I shoot two Elsie short tens, an Ideal and a Pigeon.
Why don't you guys shoot your shot tens at the AHFCA Bo Whoop station at Hausmann's ?? I bet someone could even organize a little side bet?? Would be fun and you would be supporting the AHFCA. Craig

Craig,

I'd like to see your Pigeon Grade 10. I do hope you'll bring it to Hausmann's!

Oh, good suggestion about shooting a Short Ten in the the Bo Woop challange. Are all the other Short Ten shooters reading this?

After a couple of years shooting the Bo Whoop with twelves, this year I may bring an eight along.

Mark: I will bring the Pigeon 10, I am very excited you will be at Hausmann's. WOW Bill an 8 bore would be cool+++. Craig

Craig, as long as you are taking pictures, let's see a picture of the Ideal Grade. Too bad the pictures of the Ideal Ten Pair didn't turn out. Some day we'll try again.

Count me in......although the only one I have at the moment is being restored...

I once had (traded) a Damascus Hammer Elsie 10 gauge with 9 pound barrels, choked
55/1000 in both barrels. Yes. I measured and weighed them.
Shot a round of skeet one night with it. Hit about half, but when you hit them, they just disappeared!
