robin somebody posted a letter here at one time saying no 6 s were used at 40 yards...id almost bet they used 1 ounce loads in the 12 ga and 7/8 ounce in the 16 ga...these were the common loads of shells in the respective ga s in those years of the hammer gun..hope you find what loads parker used to proof each gauge this would be interesting especially the 8 ga proof load..i thinkyouve brought up a great question and i hope we finds some answers... charlie
