    Best chokes for #4 shot in a 16 ga.

    I’ll be using Mod/Full in my side by side this month. I’ll take my IC choke just in case they are getting up closer than I expect. My 20 has IC/Mod fixed and I’ll probably take it too.

    Anyone finding ammo in the off-season?

    Found some Remington Express 16 ga #4 at local Wal Mart. Also had 2 3/4" 20 ga in #4 and #5.

    28 Gauge Choke

    for those that use a 28 gauge for pheasant, what choke do you use? I’ve always used LM and M in my 20. Do you go tighter when you use a 28?

    SD in October - IC ok?

    thanks everyone. I'm going to take the SxS 20. I may not use it. I will have my SxS 16 ga by then and will have IC, Mod, and FC in it. I'll see what they are doing. If I get close flushes, I'll shoot the 20, if not, I'll go 16. No big deal. Main reason I'm asking is that I bought the gun...

    I’m the same way. I haven’t owned a 12 in years. Shot lots of dove in Texas with a 28 and 20 gauge. Got my first 16 ga last year. My BIL has always carried a Rem 870 in 12 ga. After carrying my Franchi 48 AL 20 ga and my Benelli Legacy 20, his cheap butt bought a SBE because he was tired of...

    I’m not sure. I’m going with a group that has been going for years. Not sure if the ”guide“ has dogs or not. I haven’t asked. I’ve killed several with a 20 ga and 2 3/4” shells in Kansas. I mainly use 3” 20 ga now. Fiocchi Golden Pheasant. I will also use a 16 ga. When we go to Kansas for...

    That‘s a great photo. I’m taking the 20 and I bought a SxS 16 to take as well.

    Thanks. I’m going to take the 20 ga and if the birds are flushing too far for the IC barrel, then I’ll switch to the 16 ga. May even buy a new 16 ga before I go. I really appreciate everyone’s insight.

    I happen to have some #4 for my 16 ga. My 20 ga is #5 and #6. 3” and some 2 3/4”

    SD in October - IC ok?

    Thanks. I appreciate all the input. I’ve killed several pheasant in Kansas with a 20 ga Mod, LM, and IM. Haven’t hunted there with a IC, but I don’t even own a 12 ga. I like my 16 and I probably have plenty of ammo for it, but I have. More for my 20. If the IC will be a problem, I can...

    Private land. Not sure about dogs, but I don’t think we will have any. Pushers and blockers only. Loads will be Browning #6, Fiocchi Golden Pheasant, and Kent Fast lead. I have 2 3/4” and 3” shells

    SD in October - IC ok?

    I’m going to SD for the first time in October. I have a new to me Ithaca SxS in 20 ga. It is fixed IC and M chokes. Will it work, or should I leave it at home and take my 20 ga Benelli with a M or IM choke? Probably taking my Ithaca 16 ga Mod 37 with mod choke too.
