Good stuff guys, learning a lot more than I expected. Dad was a great trap and wing shooter, smoked ducks and all. Won MANY trophy's back in the day, he reloaded often. Mostly shot custom stocked Model 12s, but also had a Krieghoff.

His buddy....was a guru, some may have heard of this local guy who has since passed. He was fooling with mercury in gun stocks decades ago, along with anything he thought might give him an edge. He was always helping folks at the gun club.
