john 40 grains of bluedot is more like a low powered load in a 8 ga...now 50 to 57 grains will be pretty hefty loads...i ve shot the 57 grain load with 3 ounce of shot..it is full house for sure but the kick is not as bad as you think more like a big shove...i m not to good at posting pictures on account of my cumputer skills...i will get the wife to take pictures of them...i think that hammer 10 would be a good buy..i have several parkers with bad pitts in the barrels and have never had no problems...several guys have 8 gas on here maybe they will show them be a parker or other brand.....the 8 ga i have are in shooting condition butin rough condition...i have a 8 ga fa loomis with 4 inch chambers with 36inch barrels...a parker 8 ga with cut barrels from 32 inch to 26 1/4 that is the 25 parker 8 ga made....a top lever hammer gun with27 1/4 inch barrels that is was in the worst condition you ever seen...still rough but shoots now....and a parker 8 ga with hammers fish tail lever 32 inch barrels..plus this gun and the gun in rough rough shape are sisters they were 2 of 6 guns sent to california...long storey on how they got back to gether... charlie
