Just starting to Collect 10 bore Hammer doubles. Here's #1
 
Just acquired an 1889 Remington and I'm in love with it, so when I was offered a 10 bore New Baker as part of a package deal I took it.
The Baker and a Mossberg 183 KA
410 bolt action that looks pristine.
I'll post photos of the 1889 in a moment.

Here are photos of the Remington

Well I guess I won't be posting photos until I figure out how to accomplish it since all of my photos are on my phone I don't have a URL for them

Thank you Charlie.
Rest assured I plan to hunt with the Remington as much as possible, and just shoot it for fun a great deal as well
I am very much taken with 10 Gauge Hammer Guns myself. Acquired 2 in a month, and if I am not careful I will end up with a bunch of them.
This may be blasphemy on a Parker oriented site, but I am not so much interested in the Great Old doubles, as I am in the odd and unusual ones.
As long as they are in shooting condition, I am interested. 10 bores are the ones that really grab me, but other gauges are interesting to me as well.
Mainly 16, 28, and 410.
Never cared much about either 12 or 20 gauges at all.

I've owned probably 6 or 7 10 gauges now . Currently have 3 10 gauge doubles . The 10 gauge is probably my favorite gauge well besides the 8 but those aren't as easy to get as a nice 10 ga . The rst 1 1/8 oz loads out of a 10lb double has got to be one of the softest shooting combos.

I have 10 boxes of that load from RST, and another 10 of their bismuth load.
I haven't fired any of them yet. I figured I would load up a variety of charge weights with Black powder,
Red Dot and Unique and do a comparison test with the RST loads. I'll be loading 2 7/8ths brass cases.
