Could those of you who hunt with 200 series guns of this era please tell me what you are buying off the shelf or reloading with due regard for service pressure. Larry Brown or Raimey E. must have told me a bit about this at least five times and it doesn't sink in. I'd like to hunt preserve pheasant with my 200e (despite the tight chokes) and am not certain what's what pressure-wise. I have assumed that some caution is in order and have only loaded (and shot) light 1oz. skeet loads with spreaders at CIP service pressures (under 9000psi). The gun in question has Crown over N for nitro proof, the "maul" in the oval, and other crowned upper case letters which I assume are provisional proofs. I have checked Dr. Hause's CIP synopsis on 16ga.com, googled service pressure for German Nito Proof and remain paralytically confused! Thanks for all guidance in advance.
