Default just a thought

well as most know i ve wanted to take a deer with the 8 ga punkin ball load for a few years now...some way its just not been in thebook that i get one with this round..im limited by range accuracy for sure35 yards is as far as i will shoot but would like for the big one to be at 25 yards or less...will soon start practiceing again but will have another old parker 8 to help practice with who knows it may be a better shooter than the gun ive been useing..i truly look forward to hunting season again..does anyone else have anything they can add on useing the roundball load...charlie

thanks craig i hope this is the year....it sure is a lot of fun foolin around with these round ball loads... im very sure the 2 ounce round ball will have lots of effect on that deer when the two meet up or connect... i wish i had some loading information on the old 8 ga round ball loads but i do not...i ve just had to substute a given shot load and use a round ball instead...any of ya ll know of any old loading info on the old round ball loads i d like to hear about them... charlie
