Yes, the old Parker that was my Fathers. It is heavier than what I like-especially in the thick for Grouse-but I have little doubt, that on Pheasants, where I usually have more time I shoot it better.

Load is a mild one. Estate brand-16ga-2.5dram-1oz-No6-1165FPS. Haven't stretched it past 30yards or so this year, but it has pretty much given nothing but head flops and they haven't gone far from where they hit the ground. There is another load of Remington 1oz, 5's. Out in the 4 Runner, so the rest of the particulars not currently sure of, but again it is a mild load.

Out in the more open real Pheasant country, I may want harder shot if I found the ranges were commonly further.

Could have done better on the last couple Bird pictures, but the two guys I hunt with are not much into pics or waiting around. grin
