Ya I shoot my Parker at the skeet range fairly often. My parker shoots a 43/50 average destroying clays But I defiantly have to agree sxs's are a rarity at the clay range, most clay shooters use semi's or over unders. But probaly the most well seasoned shooters are the wones who shoot sidebysides, my shooting buddy shoots an old lefever 12 gauge and oviously the Parker is the king. But other than me and my buddy their are only a handful of side-by-side shooters.

PS If anyone of you guys shoot a Parker hammer gun at thunder mountain skeet range(nj) I wanna put a face to the legend.

I shoot either my DHE 16, with 30" tubes, or my 28" BHE12. The BHE is more open, but I can do equally well (or poorly, depending on one's perspective) with either. The 16 (1 frame ) gets hotter, but I pour a little cold water down each tube once or twice through the 100 round course.

reminds me of last time I shot skeet. My dad dug up some old shells (11-30-97 was the date they were reloaded) and since my grandfather's 20 gauge loader hangs powder half the shells weren't powerful enough to get the wads out of the barrels. The rest were painful to shoot
