Ah, the ol' 10ga memories.
A couple of cousins introduced me, at age 10, to 10ga pleasures. Both barrels at a big, "family" sized Folger's coffee can makes for some easy shooting, 20yds across the draw. Sent me flying back, arse over tip. The last thing I saw as my feet came up in front of me (and over my head) was the can flying off into the distance. The trip lasted only another day or so, but the bruise lasted for much longer than that. They loved that day. Come to think of it, so did I.
There was something about the accuracy and ease of hitting what you want, with that gun. I'm sure they'd tuned it with certain ammo and found the perfect match. I'm certain they kept it spotless and functioning perfectly. Living in the country, hunting duck and turkey is a big part of what they did, outside of working on the farm. Crack shots, all of them. Amazing to watch them training the twin cannons on a target.
