Different tables seem to have different ranges.
Also I was wondering if buy it and I find it does seem too tight for upland shooting when I pattern it I would consider opening it. I have heard different things about the way parker choked their guns. Is there a recipe regarding length of choke etc that I would specify to a gunsmith?
Thanks!
best way is to shoot it a pattern board 30" at 40 yds . constriction will give you a ball park on what it should shoot. scott
