However, the chokes back then were tighter than they are today because of the longer and tighter forcing cones. My experiance with anything much over 7/8oz has not been positive. Way to much shot stringing. I've shot everything from crows and ringnecks to competion sporting clays with 3/4 of an oz and if I put the load where it belongs things fall out of the sky. As for prices on old Ithacas. Pending grade, condition, rarity and a whole host of other factors I've seen them go for 3k to 25k it really depends on what your looking at. I've seen a couple of the flues models sell for sub 3k but those were local auctions. Keep in mind with Ithaca they were made, they just weren't made in great quanties. I looked for mine for almost 15yrs. (I was beinging picky as to grade and overall condition as well as cost.) Anyway, Have a Happy New Year.



Do you have any pics of your 28?
