Miller, the material in the first Gun Book makes no qualifications or fine reasonings about Burrard's "position" as represented by Garwood. To repeat, this material is probably from a monthly article in 1964. I'm wondering if Burrard is at variance with himself between Vols. I and II of The Modern Shotgun. I think I'll read whatever seems pertinent in VOl I. just to see if Vol I is all that Garwood had seen, or remembered, or chose to remember. I really hate to think that you and JL may be right about Garwood playing fast and loose with the truth of some shotgun issues and phenomena but let the chips fall where they may. They always say "steal from the best" but credit where credit's due.

later: Nothing there Vol I. All mechanics; no ballistics. I've probably confused this book with the encyclopedic work of Greener. Need to get Vol. II.
