Askins and Sweeley, along with De Pont progressive powder and help from John Olin at Western Cartridge; eventually resulted in some powerful Super-X shells. The research eventually culminated in 3 in magnum shells and the AH Fox HE Grade Super Fox along with the LC Smith Long Range shotguns. The wall thickness and pressure-related incidents are sobering. Particularly as relating to our 100-yr old fine American fluid steel barreled shotguns. Has anyone or any company done steel metal fatigue testing in older shotguns? Thanks for the research, DH.
