Thanks Daryl, Not fretting at all! Just trying to understand and decipher. Not to worried about centering...but dont want to vaporize the first Snipe that I snipe at..i recently acquired a Really heavy duty, 3" chamber, straight stocked , grade 3, Flues, 12 that has the tightest choke i have ever seen in the right barrel. And IC equivalent in the left. Cant wait to get it in the pigeon ring. But i have to admit, after 40 years of hunting Dove Quail and Snipe with a .410 predominantly, it sure is fun tagging those grey "tailwind" doves at 60 yards with a vintage tight choked double! Having the time of my life, collecting and shooting these functional works of art....and trying to cheat the knowledge learning curve in the process!
Thanks again to all for their input!
