Craig you're spot on about being able to look at a picture and going yep thats a 6 frame haha. My 10 gauge barrels are pretty chunky at 8lbs 4oz the MWT on them is .071/.070. Being left handed the 6 frame is actually too beefy for me to operate the top lever while keeping my hand on the grip so I have to hold the stock under my arm while I open it.

The DH is going to the shoot at Prospect Hall Saturday . I’ll shoot it at the first peg then leave it in John’s car and shoot something else the rest of the way around .

Brian is sending me a new spring for the forend . If I can get it in quick enough this one might take a trip in the woods . Saturday I plan on shooting the DH at the first peg and I’ll put a piece of electrical tape over it to keep it from coming down .

I ordered a new fourteen cavity gang mold from Marty’s Molds in I believe MN that’s just a hair smaller at .410” but oughtta be a darn sight faster than using the two Tanner single cavity .415” molds . https://www.ebay.com/itm/224706502219
