Gary, will you photograph each pattern, including right and left barrels from each gun, and document the pellet count within the circle you intend to use?

Sounds like a fun project and I see dean is angling for an article. I've found I get better patterns with the older hammer gun but I have not been very scientific about it.

Will you try to use the same shot size that each gun was originally patterned with?

Dean that might be a problem with the 8 gauge since I do not reload, I have letters that state the shot size on most but with the age and use I figure they will not pattern the same, this will be a new thing for me so if any of you have suggestions let me know. This will be a winter project good lord willing since I will be traveling off and on till November I will look to see if the letter on the 8 states shot size if so maybe a member can load a couple for me. Gary

Gary, do you, or anyone, know how to ship black powder shells? I have 2 boxes of 10 8 gauge shells manufactured in either England or Italy. They are "The Mammoth Heavy Load"by Gamebore. They are 3 1/4" shells with 2 ounces of no 3 shot. I will donate a box to your pattern project if somebody can tell me who I can legally use to ship them. I plan to send the other box to Charlie in Mississippi if he sends me his address. These shells are new, never fired.
