Jim, I and a couple others shot this 32" at the UP shoot and it doubled twice again. Its a high condition gun and several, including Dave Miles, suggested I clean the trigger group again. So last night I ran a lot of Rem Action Cleaner through it, following my own admonition that almost all Parker problems are caused by dirt and congealed oil or grease. We'll see if that fixes it; otherwise its off to the trigger experts.
Rich, it does make a great pheasant gun, if you are careful with the long barrels while getting in and out of the truck. And its a little difficult for shooting out the window.
You want to let the bird get out there a ways because it hits so hard even with a 7/8 load of 6's, it can turn a pheasant breast to mush. I usually aim for only the head and neck, but as I demonstrated at the Yooper, I can't hit the target all the time.
