I love the three barrel shotgun.
I have an affection for three barrel shotgun/rifle combos and the 16ga is perfect for them.
1926 Wilkes drilling 16ga/16ga/6.5 x58R Sauer, one of my favorite coyote hunting guns. 2.5" handloads with 1 oz of NP BB's or 2's.
I have a Mec 600 16ga set up with a short shell kit. 3/4oz of ITX 6's for waterfowl and 3/4 oz Lead 8's for clays and a good supply of Brenneke 2.5" slugs
Oskar, do you use any f these recipes for the ITX?
