    yeah dundee ,mine is the early escort magnum s/a with the 2 stage manual gas regulator.
    I did put five pkts of eley steel through it about 2yr ago .dirty bloody stuff but it certainly slowed up the ducks.recently doing an ammo stocktake found stillgot 6rds left -theyre in line for a gooses arse very shortly.
    3"jobbies are a tad heavy for ducks as the gadgetman will remember when i euthanised a woundy mallard hen from 6'range here on the coast .
    Gadget ,very laconic -"shot two bringing home 1 1/2"-she was dead breasted and gutted in one loud bang.
    This sounds bloody strange though so as H&F explain return em and see what the outcome is. for all you chch guys -Barry foster -stihl shop in blenhiem rd-Barry stocks the Hull pommy 12g steel game ammo and lead trap ammo
    .excellent stuff -my pet goose load solway magnum 3"34gm steel 3s-dem gooses just falls outta da sky when the load gets unloaded up their arses. My escort was bloody finnicky cycling with standard trap loads till I got onto Barrys DTL100&300 loads -oh hell yes the old girl loves em like a lab loves its tucker and i now use one as the initial det load to cycle the action which happily deposits the std trapload in the chamber as a followup.
