Me thinks Richard meant 1150 fps!!

I have collected pictures of fifteen 12-gauge Parker hang tags and I can make no sense out of why some are targeted with 1 1/8-ounce loads and others with 1 1/4-ounce loads. Some state "Use Shells 2 5/8 Long" and others state "Use Shells 2 3/4 Long".

The earlier tags, below about 150000, have a line above that states "Length of Shell X x/x Inch", always filled in 2 5/8?!?

Just to be a little more irritating a couple of tags show the gun being targeted with bulk smokeless powder and the load is given in grains.
