I usually hunt with some friends the last couple days of the season in Boswells Tavern in Louisa County . And one year we were doing man drives in s River bottom , they pushed a little buck to me . I was carrying a circa 1892 Parker GH 12 gauge 28” loaded with home cast and loaded slug in the right barrel and home loaded 0 buck in the left barrel . The little buck strolled up and stopped , I was sitting on a log , put the gun up and plunked in the neck with the slug . End of story dead right there it was a lasered 26 yards !

I’ve not had the opportunity to hunt with the 34” EH as of yet . But last season I plunked one at 25 lasered yards with the EH 28” using home cast and loaded 0000 buck (.380” roundball) . That gun left the factory choked cylinder in the right barrel and it patterns large buckshot very nicely , well I say nicely I don’t make it a habit of shooting much past 30 yards with my doubles . I was at home perched kinda high up in a tree when the doe walked by I plunked her and she stayed right there .
