With 437.5 grains to the ounce I sure don’t see a problem shooting those little 228.5 grain slugs in a decent 28 bore Parker.

And some choke should improve accuracy over a cylinder bore barrel.

What fps are you expecting from them?

I try not to go much over 1100-1150 in anything anymore. However I’ve started using W572 a little with 28 buckshot and it might be up to 1250ish .
