Sorry Craig, the VHE 28 is staying with me for a while but you're welcome to shoot it whenever we get together.
The Perazzi is built on, what they call, a baby frame. You can kind of compare it to a OO frame. Absolutely the finest gun that I own at this point. Sending you a PM re: release shoots at FMR.

Daryl, speaking of Alliant 20/28 powder, an 8 pound jug just sold on Gunbroker for $595. + $50. shipping + Buyer's state sales tax + 1% GB "compliance fee". Brisk bidding with 25 bidders. Let's say the Buyer lives here in PA where the state sales tax is 6%. That would make the total price: $690. for 8 pounds.

Yah that's way out of wack and I'd never even consider buying at that price level, but "scalper" is a broad term and can cover a wide range of pricings. If I think back 8 months or so there were so many guys with cavalier comments and posts how they'd never pay what were then premium prices and calling the sellers: scalpers. Much the same fellas who are now scrounging for primers, powder and to a lesser extent, shot. Also some are imposing on their grasshopper friends to help them out (Aesop's Fable analogy). Prices have gone up, period. And those who shoot are facing the reality that prices of components and shotgun ammo will never come back down to let's say 2019 levels, same progression as happened with 2015 prices, etc. For example I'm finishing up a sleeve (5000) of Cheddite 209's I dated 2015 and $109.00 price paid plus 6% sales tax. Nowadays many are HAPPY to pay $190. for a sleeve of Cheddite 209's from one of the large on-line distributors, plus Hazmat, shipping and sales tax. Works out to about $250./sleeve for me here in PA.
