Ed,do you know if the Camo stocked NEFs are wood or plastic stocks? Also,I found some used with 24",27" and 32"...All are the SB2,so does it matter which one I get for the rebore? Thanks!! Tom "That's not a knife..THIS is a KNIFE" ! | |||

The camo stocks are usually wood. Only the 24 and 31" are bull barrels with screw in choke good for rebore. Thr 27 and 28" with solid choke are fairly heavy but not enough for rebore. On mine I used the threaded section on end as an internal brake with ports in the top 60 degrees. After the barrel is bored 8ga there is nothing left to use choke body. As for stocks in the long run you can't beat the thumbhole survivoe stock with hollow butt full of weight.ED MZEE WA SIKU | |||

Ed,looks like a slip on pad and did you paint the forearm black to match,or is it plastic too?....also,you mentioned some porting?where,on the choke tube section? I may even go shorter,like 22"?

I like the stock,but why Lead in the stock,that would make it HEAVY and Kick less?!  duhhh!  Need a Peep or a Red Dot scope as I plan on drawing blood with it(besides my own!)  ...By the way,I have a name for MY 8 bore... "BRUTUS""That's not a knife..THIS is a KNIFE" ! | |||

What shotload can it handle? If a regular 10ga can squeeze 2.5-2.75 oz with custom handloads, then 3 oz should be possible with the 8? Karl. | |||

It'll handle 3 oz of shot, enough room for bigger buckshot if you need buckshot. Guys in UK use then with birdshot.ED MZEE WA SIKU | |||

Guys,I have a friend who can load and sell you 8 gauge loaded rounds with birdshot or buckshot if you want to shoot some Quail! I think he gets 18 .36cal 000 Buckshot balls in a shell! That's Mean!  "That's not a knife..THIS is a KNIFE" ! | |||

Safarikid, that sounds interesting. What 8 guages does does he normally load for? Regards, Karl. | |||

He used to collect many of the old English doubles in 8 and 7 gauge...He has tons of molds and loading equipment,components,cases and more.He has done both rifle and shotgun loads and still does so.....I may do some buckshot loads,but mostly slugs of heavy weight.So,you need to get on board and get you one too!

I can't get the right powders at home unfortunately, or import loaded shells it seems. Karl. | |||

I have a 10ga.It was 36" long SO I cut it off to 28" It doesn't kick that much to hurt me. | |||

I talked to Roland and he is checking on possibility of a hollowbase mold for 8ga to get us all slugs for the smoothbores we have and will have.Ed MZEE WA SIKU | |||

By the way, the 10GFH here referenced is in the classifieds. I'm hot on another project, so maby one of the hearty fellows here can pick up the pumpkin ball and waddle off with it, so to speak ...  There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t. – John Green, author | |||
