We share a love for big, long chambered waterfowl guns. My small gathering includes a 32", 3" chambered Super Fox, a 32", factory chambered 3", 3E L C Smith, a 32" A grade Fox with 3" chambers, and a 32" grade 3 Ithaca Super Ten, with 2 7/8" chambers. They all get used on ducks with appropriate loads. The Super Ten is the latest to reside here. I will shoot BOSS Cu plated bismuth in the HE Fox, but only reloads 1200 and under, with pressures in the 8000 psi range, in the others. There is substantial recoil in all three, even with the reloads, because of the stout payloads I use, but not harsh and no stock damage has resulted in the past 12-15 years of doing this.
