NEF Pardner single shot 12 gauge
22/11/13 11:21 AM

Back in June my 3 children purchased the gun mentioned in the subject line. It is a smoothbore with rifle sights.
My son and I had seen this gun at a local gunshop earlier in the summer and I commented that it might make a fun roundball gun for deer hunting. I put it back and we went home.
After a couple of days I went back to buy it and found that it had been sold. Didn't think much about it until Fathers day arrived and it was presented to me by the kids!
So I started seaching out load information right here on Nitro Express, read and re read posts by Daryl_S and Yogi000, played around with loads, and have found that at 50 yards this gun can easily make 3 inch, 5 shot groups. Good enough for the deer hunting I do in Iowa where only shotguns are allowed.
My load is a .678" ball cast from 20-1 lead tin alloy, Winchester AA case, Winchester 209 primer, 23.5 grains of Alliant "Unique", a Winchester WAA12 wad with the petals cut back to just above the centerline of the ball and a standard 8 point fold crimp.
December 7th is the start of deer season here and with any luck at all I will be posting pictures.
