OK,Kcordel!
What did I tell you. There is no discounting experience. Daryl_S has done it and proved it.
I will be hunting boar with at least one of my drilling or capes this year. I will work up the Ball load for the second shot as above. Mine also are 16ga and then the rifle caliber. One is a Swedish 12.7X44R shooting 410 grain bullets (cape gun), one a very nice old German F. Newmeyer cape with all of the Germanic flair to stock, sights,horn levers and pistol grips, etc. This is a 16ga x 9.5x56R. A case I have yet to duplicate. I have a die set, but sizing down the 11.15 X60 R Mauser case has been a trial.
Another is a nice Kettner German drilling in 16X16x 9.3x72R (normalized). It will be a chore just to pick the one I want to bring!!
I am working on my "photobucket" account so I can post some photos.
