So my memory is only half bad. The 8 bore I saw was a double rifle (high end estimate $40K), and there's also a bar-in-wood hammer 8 estimated at around $6K. I did not look them over at all, but they are there, along with quite a few other 8s. It really seems that the 8s are coming out of the woodwork. You guys are fueling a renaissance in the gauge.

It'll be a true Renaissance if we could get a run of proper shells made which I have already got halfway solved .

Craig, the Tolley four sounds like something you should have bought. Tolleys are great guns. I was at the gun show last weekend but forgot about the tailgate and the Guyette auction. Oh, well.
