- My guess- strictly a "WAG' is improper reading of the chamber depth gauge- this is listed as a 26" barreled gun with Mod and Full chokes- now I am comparing "Anvils to Aardvarks" but they also list a 12 Ga. Ithaca NID with 30" barrels choked Full and Extra Full. I'm not an Ithaca man, but know the 0 through 4 numerical code they used- 4 being Full- so again, a possible mis-read of the choke muzzle gauge-
But all shotgun barrels have some 'mystery" and the final test is how they pattern both on paper and on moving airborne targets, whether clay or feathers-
I have a 1948 era M12 Pigeon Trap 12 ga. older milled rib- 30" barrel and instead of the usual Full it is marked Imp. Mod. and it patterns 85% at 40 yards in a 36" circle on paper with the old Federal Champion paper Trap load of 7 and 1/2 shot size-but shoot a newer AA Trap load of No. 8 size shot in it- same criteria- and it only patterns 70%--
