Hi Unregistered,
On July 29th, this site will be moving..! No, really - it's "moving" to another physical location - including servers, gateways, routers - everything - including my coffee cup...
So, from the date of July 29th through July 30 or 31 (shooting for these dates, but - as always, I'm at the mercy of my ISP who has to install the lines to the new location - and we actually get them running ;) ). But - this site, cloud servers and main web will be OFF LINE.
Now, please save these dates!! Please - don't be "that guy" who emails me on the 30th to tell me you "can't open the Parker Website". I'll already know it is offline - and also know that you are "that guy"...
I'll take this notice up and down over the next week or so - and leave it up during the final few days before shutting it off on the 29th..
John D.

Factory shell pressures?
This is not a reloading question. I am wondering if anyone has tested pressure results from either of these factory 12 gauge loads.
The first in question is Westley Richards Supreme game loads 2 1/2" 30 grams 1 1/16 oz. nickel plated #7. I believe they are Lylevale Express manufacture which was one that Michael McIntosh spoke well of. I shot these years ago in a Husqvarna 310 AS and they were amazing on pheasants. I have a lot left and would like to use them up in some Parkers but need a pressure check first.
Next is B&P 2 3/4" 33 gram 1 1/6 oz. #6 (spreader- dispersante loads). I have not shot any of these and do not know if they are suitable for vintage guns.
Any information on either of these will be appreciated. I have 3 flats just taking up space. Thank You

I would hate to guess how many regular, and even magnum loads have been shot through our old SxSs. I know as a kid we use to shoot anything we could find and never gave it a second thought. I think sometimes we worry too much. You may not get a answer to your question but good luck.
