Mark,
I guess you wanted to hear the good and the bad (and the ugly?). I don't want to rain on the parade but, I really did not care for the one I owned. I had an 0 Grade L.C. Smith, 32" barrels, damascus gun. It was solid as an anvil, but weighed nearly 10 lbs. I handloaded for the 2 7/8" chambers, which was no problem at all. I tried to like it. Shot it at ducks in Arkansas, clays here, just couldn't get used to that weight so far out there. It swung like a club, and I am used to long, heavy guns.
It was only suitable for turkeys, IMO.
If you really want to enjoy it make sure it balances better than mine did. Not trying to discourage you from buying a ten, just want you to make sure you don't mind toting and swinging what you buy. I know there are English tens that handle beautifully, but I think the good handling American tens are few and far between.
Good luck! SRH
