Why beat a nice Parker if you don't need to? Whatever lighter load gets the job done is the one I would choose.

This from a man who has obviously never laid his money down and shot flyers...

It's a big money game, you shoot the best and brightest as far as loads. Using some kind of powder puff shell isn't something anybody who ever shot pigeons seriously would ever do.

I've never fired anything but a Parker at a pigeon match and I don't believe I'll start anytime soon. Last time I was out in PA I borrowed a steel barrel hammer DH from Bickel that he's set up for pigeon shooting.

It was not the gun or the loads that was lacking in my shooting I assure you. I was into my precious stock of AA Super Pigeon copper plated #8's.

You're absolutely right - never have shot pigeons for money and likely never will.

[I]I was responding to his "barn yard pigeon decoying" and didn't really pick up on his "flyer pigeon shooting" until you brought it to my attention. It is not my intent to talk about things I have no experience in like high stakes pigeon shooting...
