I love my short tens! Have three Parker 10s and one hammer Scott 10. Loading is no more of a problem than any other gauge. Twenty or so years ago a group of 10 gauge fans joined togetherI think right here on this forumand called themselves the ten gauge group. Between them they tested and developed a lot of great loads. All the loads I use today came from them. 1 1/4 oz on ducks is unbelievable. 1 1/2 oz on a turkey is devastating! More shot would just be a waste. There is a whole lot to be said for the extremely short shot string a ten can deliver.
Long live the Short Ten!
