Is this thread led off by my old friend Pete from down in Charles County and the Potomac River Gun Club at Rum Point? How is that Gene Mahoney pup of yours? I got a Mahoney setter in 2005.
I usually use our friend Morris Baker's 2 1/2 inch 20-gauge shells in my 0-frame 20-gauge VH-Grade, but I wouldn;t be above using my 3/4 ounce reloads in Remington STS hulls if the need arose. The chambers in my gun measure 2 3/8 inch, which is the way Parker Bros. chambered these old guns, 1/8 inch shorter then the 2 1/2 inch paper shells they were intended for. See pages 164 to 169 of The Parker Story.
