After Sherman Bell blew up Dr Gaddy"s and my Parkers I shoot twist, Damascus, and Fluid Steel Parkers without trepidation. All 12 gauge guns are shot with 1oz or less @ 1200 fps or below. These are off the shelf Winchester and other brands. One of my favorite Parkers is an 1881 (144 years old) 12 gauge Lifter with Twist barrels. I beat Will Curlin left handed with it shooting WW 1oz @ 1180 fps. As far as #1 Frame Parkers, I have three. If I'm shooting a round of Spoeting Clays I like 7/8 os loads as there is less muzzle rise. Fiocchi Exacta Target Line Low Recoil 12 Gauge 2-3/4 #8 Shot 7/8oz Lead 1200fps
