The first time I shot the gun was a week ago at the annual RCF&G corn roast. We open up the trap range after eating and before any serious drinking. I brought the gun and a box of assorted left over target loads. My frend, Jeff, forgot about the shooting part and didn't bring a gun. Being short of amo, we signed up for for a 10 target flight and passed the gun back and forth, sharing amo. Jeff killed nine and I got eight. He wanted to know if I would part with it. It will shoot where it's pointed. We are going to SD the end of October and it's going with me. I will have my smith check the bore/choke relationship (it's stamped mod) and see if it can be used with an oz. of Black Cloud #3s where notox is required. A Parker will be going, of course, along with the two dogs. At this point, I am leaning toward my Gaddy restored GH 12. It's choked 0.009 right and 0.032 left (good grouse gun too). For it, I use an oz pushed by PB to about 1200fps.
