CZ I can shot 70% on my very best day. If you regularly shoot 70% on Mearns My hats off to you. I have a freind that guides that rarely misses.
If someone is telling you that the average hunter shoots 70% regularly on Mearns, someone is bullsh-ting you plain and simple.
Being 60 and an AZ native that has guided plenty of people and with 1st hand experience. Most are ectatic to Shoot 25%

Mr Brown is spot on with his remark about close range, but I might add these birds are damn quick.

As far as the 24" Barreled Parker as they say some guns just feel right. This is one of them.
