Very nice, the Short Tens are great fowling pieces. What were you using for a load in it?

Good luck on your next day out, Steve! The first time I took my 'New Baker' 10 grouse hunting, I managed to bring home three birds.

and how much blue dot ?? - you guys are like my grandmother's recipes - a smidge - a pinch - enough until it looks right

Scott - do you know the pressure, although most of my tens have walls thick enough to take on dynamite - I do baby the little one.

BTW - if we keep building the following for these great guns - we'll need a separate forum here


it'll look like this
general - hammer - short tens - singles - repros -
