1900 16 VH & Doves today
Choked r/.010 & l/.028, number 1 frame and 28" barrels at 6 lbs. 13 ounces it will handle every situation. Was shooting 2.5 inch Cheddite handloads with 1 ounce 8.5s in the right barrel and 1 ounce 8s in the left and Longshot powder, low pressure. Took about an hour between thunderstorms. Less than a box and a half for fifteen bird limit and two lost ones. A beautiful September day. Rather shoot these little targets than anything on earth.
One has to wonder how many other people enjoyed the same pleasure with it in its 111 years.
