Re: Formidable 10’s
Do you rake the face with the left barrel loaded with buckshot to blind them and then thump them with the slug or ball ???

Re: Formidable 10’s
I've had my BPS 10 for gotta be 20 years, only hunted with it a few times. The only deer I shot with it was a nice young tender one. I hit it with OO buck at about10 yards . I was on the ground andit was walking towards me. I turned it's head into a canoe, and it never knew what happened.
Somewhere I have a box of federal slugs, all 5 are unfired!

Re: Formidable 10’s
I’ve done the gammit of 3 1/2” 10’s , a BPS a pair of Ithaca MAG-10’s , a Remington SP-10 and about three years ago I bought a circa 1884 Parker Grade 2 top lever 10 gauge with original Damascus barrels but it also had a set a Belgium made fluid steel 10 3 1/2” barrels that have Briley screw ins . That thing will open your eyes when I patterned factory buck and slug loads .GunnyMack wrote: ↑Fri Sep 06, 2024 3:44 pm I've had my BPS 10 for gotta be 20 years, only hunted with it a few times.

Re: Formidable 10’s
When the Ithaca Mag 10 first came out a local Tavern owner ordered one thru the Trap & Skeet club where I shot all the time. The Club Manager was a tremendous shot and at night under the lights He put on a show with that 10ga I'll never forget shooting from well past the 27 yard line. yesterday when I was Young....
