Target gets up, flys like the dickens, gun comes to shoulder, comes from behind into the birds, smoothly establishes lead, and BANG! The bird is down.
Very hard to stop, jink or jerk the swing. Pure Cadillac.

I'm a grouse hunter but I can see the advantages of long barrels even when snap shooting at short range. I use 28" barrels on my grouse guns but wouldn't mind if they were longer. The problem is finding a light small bore gun with longer barrels and open chokes. I've never seen one. And I would never alter the original chokes of a Parker. Many folks do, but not me. I'll shoot the shorter barrels and leave Parker molestation to others.
