Plain twist barrels and low pressure loads
Good morning fellas,
Have an opportunity to purchase a 1904 PH grade 12 ga. with plain twist barrels. The gun is about 95-98% original condition, no modifications, and has been vetted as having original choke/bore diameters, all in great shape.
I've been shooting other standard damascus guns with low pressure loads alot since 1990 without incident, and am thinking a good quality, plain twist barrel should behave no differently. More specifically, I've stuck to using PB and IMR 7625 powders over the years with published pressures under 7,000 psi at most - and more often than not with loads below 6K psi.
If I'm wrong in my assumption as re: shooting Parker's plain twist at similar pressures, I'd appreciate hearing about it......
'Thanks' in advance for any input,
Rob
