I shoot Sporting Clays with a number of 42 shooters (both Winchester & Browning) and "love" giving them a box of reloads, that are the "Other" velocity than they are using! (Am I evil, or just naughty?)

I'm assuming he has 42 as well. I've never heard of a 42 in 28 gauge. I do know making up fake Model 12 28 gauges has become profitable. I once read that there are more fake 28 gauge Model 12's for sale than Winchester ever actually made!
