Not exactly Parker but have questions

[Joe Wheeler]

Hello, I have been reading over your forum for several days now and I have not found all of the answers I am looking for.

The gun that lead me here is not a Parker but rather a Winchester Model 1901 in 10 gauge. These guns have the 2 7/8" chambers.

In search for my answers people told me about this page.

I am looking for loads that are safe in this gun which is rated for smokeless loads.

I would love to find a decent hunting load for duck and geese as well as normal shooting loads.

Reading over your thread on 2 7/8 10g shells I found a couple decent normal shooting loads but not much in the way of duck hunting. Maybe I have missed it.

I cannot seem to find the PDF of all the load data that is talked about on the mentioned thread.

I hope that me posting this does not go against any rules.

Thank you for your time,

Joe

Thank you. I am new to reloading for a shotgun so I am still reading up on everything and trying to learn what I can. I have been reloading for my other guns for many years. Mostly cowboy action guns.

My 10 ga 2 7/8" guns seems to like 1 3/8oz of bismuth 2s.

I load ITX shot in 10 and 12g for ducks and geese.

My Short Tens love 26 grains of WSF and 1.25oz of bismuth.
