I liked those herter 16 ga loads, and still have several cases of them, BUT, I will only shoot them in my NID 4E, Utica 16 Sterlingworth, and Fair Rizzini 16 guns.Then I happily cut them down to 2 1/2' and load low pressure 7/8 oz loads. I've given a bunch of hulls away, and still have close to 1000 that need cut down.
I'd be ok shooting them thru my steel barreled Parker 16's also for hunting, but not for the extended shooting of sporting clays--too much recoil for me, my O frame DHE 16 only weighs 6 LBS.
