mighty nice gun...it looks like it has been really cared for.. a fellow can use agun a lot and if he takes care of it it will look really nice like your gun does...ive never tried the ITX shot yet but ive put a lot of lead loads and a few steel loads through my old guns...i use blue dot powder also in the 8 ga and have used the 57 grain load of blue dot...should get a goose way out there...we can not use the 8 ga for waterfowl here in the USA but most states allow you to hunt other things with it...ive taken deer with buckshot loads and lots of squirls with it and several crows...have worked up a good round ball load for deer but did not get to use it on one yet... you have a great gun there theres not to many of us that use a 8 gauge anymore... i would like to have a 4 inch bore 8 ga with full chokes... all of us here on parker like to hear and espically see pictures of these fine old guns... charlie
