Scott,

In firing any single trigger here is what occurs:

1. Trigger pulled, gun recoils backward
2. Gun bounces off shoulder in forward direction initiating a second unintentional trigger pull
3. Shooter pulls trigger for second barrel

A single trigger may be designed to compensate for the 2nd unintentional trigger pull. For some reason, you shooting your Parker with the light ammo may have changed the dynamic of the unintentional trigger pull so that it is NOT compensated for. Another shooter may or may not have had the same problem.

Other opinions?
