I still shoot my 32 Poli Anson Extra BLE 28" IC/Mod. I shot it at the Vintage Cup in Sept. My gun is based on a 28 gauge frame.
RST now offers a nice 32 ga round. At the Vintage Cup, they hadn't gotten proper packaging. They sold 50 rd ZipLock baggies. I bought all the #9 they had. RST 2 1/2", 9/16 oz of #9. It is a great load in a Cheddite hull. The hull should reload more times than the Fiocchi hull. I haven't started reloading it yet.
The RST staff share a 32 hammer gun at Vintage events.
I don't currently have a 24. I have had 3. I am always looking, but not too hard. The 24 ga reloaded with #9 has about the same pellet count as the fellow with 1 oz of 8s in his 12 or 16. They are usually surprised that the 24 can shoot as well as it does. Note, these were my reloads, not factory shells. The factory shells were my source of hulls.
There was a Poli BLE 2 barrel set in 24/32 here in Charlotte, from an estate. It sold recently to a bird hunter who wanted something different in the field.
This probably goes in the Gun That Got Away, but several years ago, Holt's had a Greener 24 ga Damascus SLE. It was a baby doll. I don't know where it when.
