8ga Shooters attending the Southern group gathering

[John Davis]

I shot the event the first year with one of the Parker 8 gauges made available for loan. It was great fun but a bit intimidating to shoot a gun that’s bigger than you are.

And it spun you around like a top. You got a hold of some of them heavy loads.

Next on my agenda is an 8 bore Parker. That will complete the ensemble.

True, true, true. When is the ensemble ever complete? Seems to be in a constant state of flux. Just sayin'.

I wonder if you could use a 1/4" fiber wad or card under the sp8 wad then with the 1.5oz loads all the shot would be contained inside the wad? I havnt played around with any of the 1.5oz loads since I dont have any powder besides Bluedot.
