bill im using a mold made of brass that i got from a fellow over in england...the accuracy is not great bill..ive shot the load proably 50 times and on the average it groups in a 8 inch circle at 40 yards..if i had good sights on the old parker i mite be able to stretch it out to 50 yards. but my sight on the old parker is a huge front bead...at present im limiting myself to a 35 yard shot..have not pulled the trigger yet but hopefully will soon get a shot... some one here on the forem gave me name of the fellow who makes the moulds.they are top quality and very nice with my name the 8 ga and size of the mold on it...bill you d be proud of one of these in your collection or anybody with an 8 ga gun..you do have to measure the bore size at the muzzle..i kepy mine bore size at .004 under the actual bore size...my old 8 ga barrels have been cut from 32 inch to 26 1/4 inch so she has a pretty good size bore...the ball that goes to the parker will not even start to roll down the old f a lommis i got from destrey...so it is important to measure the bore good... i need to practice some more these loads im using aredecent on the gun and shoulder... charlie
