Is there a good source for researching the history of the 28 gauge? I've looked several places for a kick in the right direction (28 gauge society, flayderman's, shotgunworld etc.) But relativly nothing on the history of the gauge. I have heard the false story that Parker introduced the 28 in 1903. I know that can't be accurate because I own 2 belgian doubles that were made in the 1890's. I've seen muzzleloaders from way before that - but I am mostly interested in the cartridge history more than the bore size.
Thanks in advance
