I have had one of the AYA Lightweight 10ga 3-1/2" for a few years now. I corresponded with eightbore about his and if I should worry about shooting steel out of it. At the time I measured wrong, I told him the gun was choked 0.025 in both barrels. Turns out I was wrong, both bores are 0.772 with .045 choke. The rib is marked Full & Full, they weren't kidding. 32" bbls. and weighs 9-10.

I took it out last week for the first time and used 3-1/2" Black Cloud Steel BB's and Canada geese fell like stones. I'm either going to have to open them up or shoot further....birds were pretty torn up at 30 yds. And I have to admit, less felt recoil than some of my 12's.

Maybe adjust the chokes and put swivels on it.


My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income.
