Dragging a .410 into a 10 guage thread reminds me of a Joe Biden moment...

Just saying.

Ted; I agree with your statement about the full choke being almost obsolete.

In his later, more affluent years, the late Paul A. Curtis favored English made side-by-sides, London "bests" and a few made to order by R.G. Owen. The late Dr. Charles Cadwalader Norris, a "Main-line Blue Blood, started with L.C. Smith doubles, than later moved in the Purdey class. When did Hunter Arms drop the 10 bore from their line? My guess, strictly a SWAG- soon after they developed their 12 bore LONGRANGE model. RWTF
