I have more shotgun’s than I have time to shoot. If I want to shoot a 12 there are plenty to choose from. I am aware of gauge reducers, just never felt the need. Jim, I appreciate your thoughtful suggestion. I’m happy to hand load the old fashioned way with all brass shells. They have never failed me. Slow and time consuming, but I have a lot of time on my hands.

Since I’m okay with the 10 gauge 1 ounce load pushed with Green Dot and have seen it break clay birds at a fair clip I may on Monday try my top lever hammer 10 two barrel set on dove and use the set of 26” barrels I shot at Rock Mountain in the grouse walk . Those barrels BTW are both quite quite open as the letter indicates .
