Vince, Greetings. I snagged your name off the site. I have a 1902 12 o grade from my g-grandfather.You can see this guy and gun here. www.fauerbachbrewery.com/fbcimages2.thm
I have it in great condition in my locker. I would love to be able to take it our and shoot it safetly. What loads would yo recommend.
My dad used to tie it to a table and with a string about 10 feet long, shoot it from afar. Haha - I am sure he had safety in mind.
