Pedersoli SxS...New to me.

[Fez]

I just purchased a Pedersoli side by side 12 gauge. I have a few questions. First the barrels are marked 18.2 and 18.2 what does this mean? Also it seems the forearm has a little flex too it. Is this something to be concerned about? If so is there a fix for it? Maybe a new wedge?

It means the bores are .715 caliber.

18.2 x .0393 = .715

If you buy or order wads and cards you will likely wand to order 13 gauge. Mine is also choked full and full I believe as the bores measure about.675 at the muzzle. They open up 3-4 inches down the barrel.

Just get over shot cards, don't get nitro or fibre wads. 12g ones.

And it's easy to punch out your own. Cheap, too.
