Hmmm. I guess I wonder how a 12 ga shotgun would wind up with a .30 or .40 caliber bore? Sleeving?
Are you thinking the action isn't strong enough, or the barrel, or both? I'd think there's plenty of opportunity to make the chamber strong enough. |

After receiving the Parker SBT from the seller in Michigan, I shipped it back. Too many issues with this SBT. Took it to Cullity's for inspection as I noted a number of issues. The ejector mechanism requires serious work, the inside of the fore end had been re-worked improperly, the top rib had several sections of non parker rib material installed (patched in)and the rib wasn't even level. Just too many issues and would have been a money sink to correct so I declined the purchase and shipped it back. I'd do better to pick up a BT-99 for all the trap shooting I do.

Brian have you thought about the .35 Winchester? Ballistics fall between the .35 Rem and .35 Whelen and cases are easily formed from .30-40 Krag cases. Even without max loads it puts deer and bear down instantly and psi should be similar to the .30-40
