Rich, I'm a believer in matching shot weight to bore. 3/4 to 7/8 for 20, 7/8 to 1 for 16 and 1 to 1/8 for 12. Parker Bros and the old shotgunners knew things that the ammunition and gun industry seems to have forgotten today.

Mike, thanks and you have some fabulous guns, such as that 20ga A. I'm looking for the definition of killing circle. We all have the sense of what it is but there must have been a definition published somewhere circa 1910.

Don't be so wrapped up in the "bird gun" mentality. Variety is what makes the Parker world go around. Without .410s, 28s, 10s, and 8s, Parkers would be as boring as some other brands. No, I didn't shoot any heavy loads in my old 3" 20 gauge, but it was a neat Parker nonetheless.
