That roundball will hopefully work in SP-10 wads as well as patched in my muzzle loader MacFarlane double .

That Lyman pellet slug should do well enough for all my 12 gauge guns .

But I need to find something suitable for the 16's and possibly a pellet looking slug for the 20's .

I've got a couple 20 Sterlings and this little VHE I got about two months ago that I wanna do the slug/buckshot thing in as well . This little VHE I've known for about 45 years and to be honest never thought I'd be able to get it from the owner . But he up and wanted to sell it and offered it to me first . So I bought it PDQ .

The darn thing is choked about M&F . I took it out a day or so after I got it and broke 23 out of 25 at skeet. Both the birds I missed I missed with the full choked barrel . Granted I expect I would have missed them with IC as well but that's beside the point !

Incidently that was with a mounted gun . The following round I shot a little Philly 20 gauge Sterling 26" IC/M and shot low gun and broke 24 of 25 .

Got my eye open for a Smith Ideal grade 20 gauge now and I'll have enough 20 gauge guns . What with 2 Sterlings , the VHE and a couple Belgian Superposed's .
