    Favorite caliber to shoot

    As soon as I cast some more .600 balls I will be back to the range to experiment some more with my Pedersoli trade gun. Last time I shot ball out of it, it was doing very good with 80 gr, FFG, 80 gr corn meal, and bare .600 ball, ant then a cardboard wad to hold it all together. Seemed to...

    Favorite caliber to shoot

    To me, it depends what you are shooting at. I love the .54 for hunting, in both Kibler Woodsrunner, or the T/C white Mountain Carbine. Depending what the weather is.

    Who can jug choke a smoothbore barrel?

    I use a Pedersoli 20 gauge Trade gun. I am shooting 80gr FFG, wool wad, 1 1/2oz 5 or 6 shot, and a cardboard topper to hold the shot in. I am experimenting with , powder-corn meal-shot -topper. At 25 yards I should be okay. I am looking for a 12ga double barrel, for a follow up shot if...

    Who can jug choke a smoothbore barrel?

    Part of the “fun” is NOT wounding a big Tom turkey, and loosing him. Turkeys are big, tough birds, much bigger than those cock pheasants. And where we hunt them,is a bit more rugged terrain.

    Who can jug choke a smoothbore barrel?

    As I try to get a better pattern in my smoothbore 20ga trade gun, I realize that 25yds is my limit. I was wondering if I could send the barrel off to someone and have it jug choked? Any ideas
