My CE Fox "Matilda" and a fairly new to me Syracuse Lefever GE literally jumped out of the safe this morning to start stretching their legs in prep for the Northeast SxS. Both are 12-gauge and I shot the same ammo in both, 1 ounce of 7-1/2's in front of Alliant E3 powder in Remington Gun Club hulls. About 1150 fps. Here's a quickie pic of both on the course at the Rock. Matilada is an Ansley era gun, now 110 years old, and the Lefever is younger at 107, and both beat the modern competition clays guns in our squad today. I hope those planning on doing the Northeast are starting to dust off their Foxes.
