Prolly about to pick up a browning gold 10 from a retiring-from-10 gauge- family member. It's all he's ran on geese and crane for a long while. Only reason he's putting it down is his shoulders are bad and he can't swing the big ole 10 effectively anymore.
I used my Bighorn Armory 500 lever on some beaver!!!! That makes a big kerrplunk!!! A pile of H110 and 350 grain xtp at last light ya need sunglasses for the muzzle flash tho out a 18" barrel!!! 10 gauges are heavy for the most part just don't compete with modern 3.5"12 gauge loads and guns. Seems like technology forgot about the 10 gauge about 20 years ago!And I thought taking my .300 win mag beaver hunting back in the day was overkill

Pfffff! That's nothing! You really wanna see some carnage you hit them with a 3/4 ton at highway speed…as in, "farmer is on the highway…driving like a madman on a parts run during harvest". My dad basically turned a deer inside outOr going Whitetail deer hunting with a 30-378 with 245gr in Wv limited to 200yds.

Twas a long time ago haha. But normally he drives like, well, and old farmer. But there's a special "bat out of heLl" kind of driving that only old farmers on parts runs perpetrate
The ones that make a mess are the Tractor Trailers, all you see is a fresh red spot on the highway for a hundred feet and fur balls and it covers the whole road.
10 gauge shotgun, do they still make them???

It's all I found too. Just did some searching haha.
Used gun sites and auctions are where to look I suspect.
First gun I ever fired was a 10-gauge Parker SxS. I must have been about 8. A poor red squirrel got turned into goo and I ended up rolling down a hill a__ over tin cup. Apparently, the owner of the shotgun was a veteran of this kind of action and was somehow able to catch the gun.
I still use a 10-gauge Browning BPS for geese. Seems that the 3-1/2" 12 gauge are more popular these days which no doubt affects 10-gauge sales.
