Spence, it shouldn't be, Matt Avance told me several yrs. ago that he would NEVER use a DOM barrel. Didn't say why. I have one made by the former owner of TVM, jack Garner, that has proved to be a great barrel but it isn't tapered.

Jackie, since I bought my Carolina Smoothbore from you in 1997 it has been my gun for 95%+ of all my shooting, large game and small. I've taken 16 deer, I think, 4 turkeys, a few messes of doves, bunches of rabbits and squirrels and one unlucky groundhog. None of them seemed to mind the DOM barrel. I've loaded her with modern components, with tow, hornet's nest, brown paper and shredded cedar bark, had good success in the field with most of those, and the barrel hasn't complained, either. I've fired most combinations of powder and shot/ball you can think of, up to and including 90 gr. FFFg Goex and 2 oz. of shot. The gun has been totally dependable in all weathers, and I do mean all weathers, has never failed to function as needed for even one single shot fired at game in all those years. It fits me like a custom gun, comes automatically to the shoulder and is more pleasing to my eye than most any other gun I own. I want to thank you for all the hundreds of hours of fun I've had with your gun. Traipsing the woods with your gun on my arm has been one of the highlights of a long and varied hunting career, and I owe you more than I can say for helping make it happen. Thank you, my friend.Jackie Brown said:BTW, the squirrels I brought home this week didn't seem to mind the tubing barrel. LOL
