Pete,

My 10 Gauge Parkers and 12 Gauge Super Foxes routinely drop Canada geese in my pond's kill zone at ranges of 60+ yards. I shoot 1 3/8 oz of Nice Shoot #2 and BB at 1300 fps in the 10 gauges. My best in a Super Fox was with a factory Kent TM 1 1/2 oz with #1 shot. That feat was at over 60 yards and cannot be shared via public forum! Needless to say, with proper loads of large shot, the right shotgun can be effective atover 60 yards

Mark

Mark, what kind of patterns are those guns throwing with those loads at 40 yards?
