It is very interesting to me the difference in Velocity of these two loads shot through the Super Mag with the .002 cylinder gap compared to these same loads shot through a 12" 15-2 with the .006 cylinder Gap. The difference in cylinder gap makes a big difference in Velocity.

“When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether
they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes – remembering that it was
one of the best parts of my education – *make* them hunters.”
