Frank
Thank you for the information on the number of Super tens. I did not know that they were so few... We have had a few, and as of late we have sold a couple. Can you tell me how many of the Super tens were graded guns??? I did enjoy the article in the recent Double Gun Journal.. David |

David, yeah I know you gents are Super 10 advocates. Walter doesn't have a count on the graded Super 10's. I'd estimate maybe 10-15% just extrapolating from the guns I've seen since I started actively looking for Super 10's about 8 years ago.
Charlie the info is too long to summarize and much of it is in Part 2 of the Double Gun Journal article that will be in its Summer edition, thus it isn't fair to the publishers to do it here. Part 1 is in the Spring 2014 edition that was released last month. Short answer is: they were made for the heaviest 2-7/8" loads and most of the Super 10's had very heavy choking. Frank |

I have a grade 2E choked .042 and .043, shoots nice and tight.

Some discussion here on the Super Ten and people reporting constrictions of .055 and .056.

Just my experience but many bore mikes will drift and read off when trying to read 10-gauge bores and chokes without calibrating separately for bore and also for choke.

Here are some pics of a Grade 2 magnum I had. It was a late gun with 32" barrels and extra full chokes. It weighed 12+ pounds. I took it to Vegas one year and swapped it for a Parker 20 that weighed half as much.

I agree Frank. I was having a heck of a time measuring 10ga bores. So I called skeets and had him build me an oversized gauge for measuring these guns. Patrick |
