Old farrier Posted March 1, 2019 Report Share Posted March 1, 2019 Very good short video what make of gun ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpatten Posted March 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Alan Myers 4 1/4" brass cartridge case super magnum 4 bore. It`s actually nitro proofed but we were using black powder to avoid the nosebleeds. We actually used two of these in the main film that should be out next week. 2 of 16 made by Alan about 20 odd years ago. The guns are of significantly more substance than yer average Tolley 4 bore and it has to be said that Jonny is 6`7" tall and makes the gun look smaller than it is for more normal sized people.

islandgun Posted March 2, 2019 Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 Excellent ! Do you know the choke and likely spread at say 50 yds... I have an Alan Myers 10 bore RTO, a very solid tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpatten Posted March 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2019 The choke in both these 4 bores is super full but do`nt ask me what the actual measurement is. They were built to out perform older 4`s in terms of shot load and range.We do some impromptu pattern and range testing in the forthcoming film. Both are quite impressive!

mudpatten Posted March 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Release date of the full length film has been put back to this coming Thursday for technical reasons. It turned out to be longer than expected and editing has been slower with so much film to select from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motty Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 Please tell me you were shooting at a proper pattern board, rather than a sheet of card laying against a barb wire fence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
