Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Funny you should bring this up Pete. I have a Rem. 1900 GED, 16ga. with 28" barrels. The chokes mic out to .009/.015 or roughly IC/Mod but when I shot it the first time with 3/4oz. loads it just balled targets up. So, I took it to my gun club and put it on paper. I don't remember the exact pellet count but in my notes the results were 67% and 76% with the 3/4oz. load of 7 1/2's, pushed along by 15.5gr. of 20/28 and a Dr16 wad at 30yds. That's more like a tight Mod/Imp.Mod. Must be something to your theory of those guys in Ilion and their barrel work.

Wow, that is surprising as well with so little constriction. What is the barrel lug stamped i.e. what were the patterns it achieved before leaving the factory?
The gun I tested last night is stamped 69 and "Mod" (Dave Noreen told me it is the first Remington he has seen without a number). Remington tested a 12ga with 1 1/4 ounce of 8 so the 369 would be a 72+%. Not what I would expect from .024 of choke. In Charles Semmer's Remington book he stated that due to lack of having any hang tags for reference it is unknown what weight and shot size Remington used for pattern testing 10 and 16 gauge guns.
