Allan - I understand completely.
I was not aware of the questionable reputation of the Flues 12 bore. I have owned two Flues models but they were 20 and 28 bore guns and I never gave it a thought because they were both high condition guns and simply shot Morris’ ammo in them... never owned or shot a 12.
In the early 60’s I had a 12 bore Parker Trojan and shot anything that would fit in the chamber... Ignorance is bliss I guess, but in my ignorance I shouldn’t be advising others to do similar fool-hardy things to those I did in my blissful early teens.
Our Best to you and Jean as well.
Dean
