Snipe Hunter (Skip) shoots a 32 ga. at snipe on occasion. He modified a Mec 600 Jr. to reload the shells. I don't think he's shown the gun or the press on this site, but he is a frequent poster on the Guns and game thread during the snipe season. Hopefully he'll see this and chime in. Gil


I sold Skip that gun many years ago.

KY Jon... I had the very same gun you're wanting to do. A Manufrance Ideal 24 bore that someone sleeved to 28 bore. I couldn't hit a thing with it. So I moved it on to a guy in Alabama that collected Ideals. But I bought an inexpensive no name Belgian 28 bore and had made 32 bore inserts for. I shoot it good and really like it. So my advice go for it!
