Well until an honest Parker damascus smallbore turns up I’ll have to post this Fox pic. Here’s a good size grouse taken on Wednesday near the hunting camp in NE Pennsylvania; its fan measures 15-1/4” wide. Upper Fox is a 20-bore Sterlingworth with 28-inch tubes. Bird was taken with the lower gun which is a 16-gauge A Grade, 26-incher, using RST papers with 7/8 ounce of 7-1/2 shot. Story that came with the 16 is, it was owned by an avid grouse hunter and was sold by his grandson long after the gent passed. Anyway, this 16 has proven to be a very lucky gun for me.
