In the late '60's,VM choked my lightweight Dewson 10 bore that the old RR engineer I got it from said belonged to a cook at Teddy Roosevelt's ranch and had been used in New York on passenger pigeons. VM's shop was an easy drive from my place. Anyway, I was very pleased with the results. I won a trapshoot with the gun and shot some sharp-tailed grouse with it, but mainly used it for pass shooting waterfowl.
4 1/2 dr. fG and 2 oz Lubaloy 4s would really reach up there.
I remember one shot in particular at the Salt Lake Pass when three redhead drakes fell belly up inside a 20 ft circle. I heard one guy on the pass yell "What the hell was that?" when he saw the big plume of smoke and the birds rained down!
