First day in the northern praries. Dickinson Plantation 16 ga.

 

[Kismet]

There are so many beautiful side-by-sides, and you guys seem to own many of them.

It's gratifying to see them in use.

Thank you.

I have a sterlingworth 16….light as a feather! 1928 gun.

What is the sterlingworth 16 used sell for these days?

I’m not sure…things got goofy there for awhile…

 

[birddude]

G.B. has several. They are pretty reasonable, 1-2 k.

 

[Hunthemup]

Understand thats why I was asking. Saw one at the local Cabelas library for about $1,100+ Last time I saw some listed they were going from $800+

 

[benelli-banger]

I suppose condition and dimensions play a big role in the pricing

Wow, Can u point to the Sterlingworth for $800? 16 ga?

 

[benelli-banger]

I just looked at Guns Intl…most are between $1500-$2300 it seems…some lower, many higher

 

[Birdman2]

That's sounds right. I was hoping someone found them for 800.00. I was going to buy them all. Lol

Been hunting Browning bss in 12 gauge. Son shooting Lefever Nitro in 20. Dads been hunting his model 21. Got an old Fox circa 1907 I like to shoot, but I ran out of paper.

 

[Birdman2]

Ran out paper?

 

[dustin mudd]

Likely paper short 2.5 inch shells?

 

[Tomahawker]

Yes, looked at RST and they sold out of 12 gauge

 

[Birdman2]

Oh paper shells. Ok

 

[pbg]

I shoot an ancient 16 gauge Hercules Model 50 which is actually a Stevens 5100.

7/8 oz steel #4 in the right barrel and 7/8 oz steel #3 in the left.

Great gun ! I shoot one also.

 

[Birdman2]

Great gun ! I shoot one also.

Where do u get those shells?

 

[Hunthemup]

That price was a couple of years ago. I was making the comparison on today's prices

Where do u get those shells?

I reload a BPI recipe using the PT1680 wad in a Cheddite hull.

It uses 7/8 oz of shot and has a published velocity of 1550 fps.
