Shotgun rifle barrel liner
I have a 1882 Remington SxS [ it's not a Parker, but close ] and picked up a 40cal 2 1/2" rifle liner. The gun was made for one. Anyways, after fire forming some 30/40 Craig into what I wanted I got it shooting pretty good. I believe it was made for the 40/50 shell, and Ross Sigfried wrote that 40% by weight of 4198 can be used in place of black powder. Well, 20.5 grains of 4198 and a 425gr slug groups real nice - good for deer hunting this year. That, and the other 10ga barrel will have buckshot. Brad Bachelder thought Parker also offered a shotgun to use the rifle liner, but I had never heard of it being offered. Anyone seen one ?
