Austin Hogan’s Graphs and Plottings
In a recent thread I alluded to the many, many graphs and plottings Austin recorded both for future articles in Parker Pages, Double Gun Journal and other shotgun and fly-fishing publications. I came across one of the notebooks he left me today and I’ll use this thread to post some of them as I ‘discover’ them. I must say I think a lot of them were done simply to satusfy his scientific curiosity and whimsy and there are some that I don’t understand at all...
This first installment is his plotting of a 32” Super Fox chambers and choke... No. 3108& to be exact... “Bo-Whoop” as a matter of fact.
Burt Becker was obviously no slouch as the entire bore from breech to muzzle was one long ogee.
I hope you can read it.
