    Shells? Bring Money

    I find some 20ga #6 and #5 but they don’t stick around long. A 20 is all I use.

    Beretta A400 20 gauge extreme

    I guess what is tolerable won’t be determined until you can shoot one. I think that either 20 ga Beretta A400 or a Remington 1100 would do the job. I also shoot a 20 O/U Beretta and it defiantly has more recoil than the either of the semi autos. I have no arthritis in my shoulders so my response...

    Beretta A400 20 gauge extreme

    I am sure it helps to reduce recoil some in a 20 but there isn’t much to begin with. The recoil reduction will probably be more noticeable in 12 ga than a 20 ga.

    Beretta A400 20 gauge extreme

    I have a 20 ga A400 Upland with the K/O. Love it. No naming, no miss fires and fits me just right. Have used it phesant hunting for two years now and skeet shooting. That said I really could not tell any difference in the recoil vs my 20 ga 1100.

    Shells? Bring Money

    Scary thing about it is that I can’t see the price of shells going down much if the supply ever gets better.

    New upland shotgun?

    I have a 20ga and use Berreta A400 Uplander. No problems with it. It brings them down. That said my son in law does seem to get a few more at longer distances with his 12 ga and that makes sense. More lead in the air with a 12 than a 20 but I will keep my 20 and be happy with it.

    New pheasant shotgun??

    I purchased a Beretta 20 ga A400 Upland last year that is fabulous on phesant. Comes with 5 chokes, can take 2 3/4” and 3” shells, light weight, has K/O recoil reduction system and is very reliable. If you can find a dealer who has one it will fit into your budget.

    Beretta A400 20ga Upland

    Ended up using #6 2&3/4” 20 ga IC on my KS pheasant hunt. Can’t complain. Only one got away and it was a clear miss. It kept flying til it was almost out of site.

    Beretta A400 20ga Upland

    I am closer to 68 than 67 so I understand your challenges.

    Beretta A400 20ga Upland

    Took the A400 20ga and it did the job. No misfires, jams, nothing went wrong. Son in law using a 12 ga got a few birds that were out of my range....skill wise. All in all I am quite happy with my 20ga Upland A400.

    Beretta A400 20ga Upland

    Good info on the maintenance. Thank you.

    Beretta A400 20ga Upland

    Do you shoot a 2&3/4” or 3” shell when hunting phesant with you 20?

    Best choke for 20ga using pointing dogs

    Makes good sense.
