Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

In a totally non scientific test, four of us all shooting different guns with Shenk shells versus a variety of commercial 2 3/4 “ “light” loads and also RST loads, consistently (100% accuracy), could identify the Shenk shells due to much greater felt recoil and loudness. Even with proper hearing protection . I tried to find someone to test the velocity and pressure without luck. I emailed Shenk and received no reply. I have several boxes of the “quail” and “grouse” loads. I won’t shoot them in my vintage guns any longer.

Precision will test them. They need 5 or 6 shells. One gets dissected.
