If you are some stiff spending $40 for a box of shells, all I have to say about that is.

Yes. Same as by most makers.

I don't know about the 2 3/4 20 for Pheasants. Many years ago, I took one to Iowa. And before you say I wasn't hitting them properly, I assure you I was. It was a cripple fest. And no I didn't pick my shots either.

I’ve had good results with 2 3/4” lead…5’s…usually an ounce…I’m simple, I’ve had good luck with an ounce of #5 lead out of 16’s as well…if they pattern well, seems moot to a degree the gauge…I don’t have a huge sample size, but an ounce of 5’s have worked well out of 28’s as well.

When you shoot a 20 gauge or especially a 28 gauge, you have to really watch your range. Watch the wind.

If you hit them properly they would be dead, Mr. Obvious, formerly Birddude.

That's pretty good. I also think it's obvious that a 2 3/4 20 does not even come close to having the range or killing power of a 12.

If I wanted to put an ass whipping on somebody, I shoot my 1187 12 gauge. When I'm out by myself, I'll take the little Ithaca side-by-side 20, or the sweet 16, or the 870 with the sling.

I'm just glad you stopped taking the 28 and losing all those cripples.

I didn't completely stop using it, but I think I've only used it once this year
