I use a VMI 3301, which is pretty nearly the piston version of what you are playing. I find that there are some alternate fingerings that work well on my horn. The G at the bottom of the staff is sweet using 3 and the B natural below the staff is on the money using 2&4. Depending on the length of the note I will use traditional fingerings as my old fingers don't jump to 2&4 too quickly. Occasionally I get away with 1&3 fingers on 2&4 depending on the preceding phrase.
Taj, reentering lurk now.
