Thanks. You see so few 28g. and this is probably the first hammer gun in 28 I have seen that is affordable so I grabbed it. It is very "cute" and with the 14" LOP was not made for a kid. I picked it up yesterday and have not shot it. It is snowy and icy here today so it will have to wait until tomorrow at best.
It is marked 2865 in a circle. I assume it means 28g. 2 1/2" chambers. I measure 2 5/8" but it is even harder to measure such a narrow bore because it is harder to see. I have been struggling whether to lengthen the forcing cones or shoot my 2 3/4 loads and ignore the difference. I do this is 12 gauge but there is a lot less room for error here and I don't make low pressure loads in the 28 gauge and I imagine that low pressure is a relative term when it comes to such a small gauge.
Because it is such a light gun (4lbs 11 oz) and I have heard that kick is increased when the hull is longer than the chamber (although I see no logical reason it should make any difference) should I be concerned with stresing the stock?
