You'll be surprised at the pattern you'll get. Back when card wads were standard, patterns were more open, but with modern plastic shot cups you will get better results than you expect.
Nice work
Nice work

I use a cylinder bore on early season pheasant, and quail.
Ive got a 94 that im going to workover for my next project. Im thinking curly maple and a heavy rust brown, Fixed sights, steel hooked buttplate.
