I just wish I could go to a gun show again. I really miss them. Wayne I have been looking for 3” 500 Nitro for BPE for My Alexander Henry for years now. I am loading my own but it would be cool to get some factory ammo.

You might be able to contact Kynoch USA and see if they could get you some , they dont list it on their American page but their UK page does .

Charlie;
The Fox 20 would have gone home with me as would have the M24. Don't see many 24s in great condition or smallbore Foxes under 1k. But I realize those tiny guns probably seem like toys to you compared to your 8's and 10's.

Thanks for the report.

Is a 10 gauge not a good kids gun ?

My only experience with small bore 16s and 20s is with modern ones which are perhaps overstuffed with payload and in such light guns they were unconformable to shoot . I always get funny looks when I tell people id rather shoot 10 gauges instead of a 20 haha .

Do you shoot reduced loads in your 10's?

Someday come to one of the SxS events and I'll give you the 20ga of your choice to shoot with some of my 3/4oz. loads. Bet you change your tune.

The shells are on me but you will have to return the gun.

I like 10’s for sure and the new to me 8 is growing on me . But for pure pleasure and fun shooting I’d rather have the little 28 or perhaps one of the 16’s .
