Just back from the Southern where I picked up 6 boxes of these NOS Remingtons at a really good price. Ready for our spring turkeys just as soon as I get a chance. I do load for the short ten but these are ready to go in one of my NID Ithaca Super 10's. 4-3/4 DE with 1-5/8 oz. of bare 4's. Sometimes the goodies you pick up cheaply at shoots like the Southern go a long way toward paying for the trip expenses. This is one of them.





Incidentally I had the chance to look at three (count em 3) Ithaca Double Magnums for sale while at the Southern. One was I believe a Grade 2 Magnum 3-1/2" 10 ga and the other two were Grade 4 12's built on the Ithaca Magnum frame with its extra lug. One of the 12's was a 3-inch screamer in hunting configuration with 30-inch barrels, a splinter forend and double triggers. The other 12 was believe-it-or-not a 2-3/4" chambered/stamped vent-rib gun with 32-inch barrels, a trap style monte carlo stock and single trigger. What are the chances of seeing three graded Ithaca Magnums in the same place on the same day? And especially, two of the ultra rare 12 bores on the Ithaca Magnum frame? Walt Snyder was there too and we were both pretty excited about them.
