I like the idea of the deer hunt. All our Parkers are Damascus barrels……and these are smokeless shells ��

I see no warning on the box stating "Do Not Use in Guns With Damascus or Twist Barrels"

Send one or two to Tom Armburst to get pressure and velocity specs first.

With the Parkers cleaned and put up for the summer a journey north by northeast was in order. Great times with dear friends on The Rock!

Those fish look to me like Atlantic Salmon Grilse, if I'm not mistaken.
