Thanks for the info.
So with today's ammo constraints is there still an advantage to the HE? Does it still do a more efficient job of delivering a denses cloud of shot at a longer distance?
I'm just wondering if the extra $$ HEs command is really worth it, or if it's just for nostalgia.
BTW: I have no problems with nostalgia, I just want to know what I'm really spending my money on.
Continuing my obsession,

Much depends on how one looks at it. When classic fowler was needed I reached for 3" Model 12. Found one in about 95% original condition for less then price of new Remington 'Wingmaster'. It will kill fowl as well as HE plus give you 3rd shot at fraction of the cost. If you want classic sxs fowler look for English one from specialty maker like: Bland, Greener, Tolley,..... English nostalgia is no less precious and less expensive I might add.
