VH 28 stuck shut.

I had an early 28 VH on an 0 frame. The rim recess was shallow by todays standards. There were few modern 28 gauge shells that would allow the gun too close. I purchased a reamer and fixed the problem. It was common to the early 28 gauge Parkers. So common that I ended up lending the reamer to a number of PGCA members.

This is not an issue that is unique to 28g. It can happen with any gauge. And even within different manufacturers of ammunition.
