So how many folks does it look like so far ? I think I’ve got the fellow that finished second to Koneski at the Vintage Cup (8 gauge event) coming but he’s shooting a euro gun not that there’s anything wrong with that

Any response from the lowly Hardware store Smith lads ? Well DeFerlemont told me he was but dunno about any of the others .

Craig: I don't have a count on the number of shooters, but I expect about the same as last year. I'm just packing one 8ga and some extra shells in case someone shows up with a 8 and no shells. See ya soon and looking forward to the Southern.

This year I probably won’t bring but my 8 a pair of 10’s a 12 and maybe a 16 . And the 16’s kinda doubtful

But as in all previous years more shells than I could possibly use .

just curious.....how many 8 gauge guns did Parker make? a friend has a 10 but I've never even seen an 8 in real life.

Seems to me I was told 500ish at some point . Before that I’d thought 350ish .

Seen today ..... a couple of 8-gauge boys at a certain NE PA location cooking up new loads with alternate powders in prep for the Southern. It was raining like crazy all morning and they were shooting from under a roof. Just sayin.
