I m satisfied with a 28 gauge over/under for both purposes. Some 28 gauge O/U rs are built on a 20 gauge frame so are similar in weight. My inexpensive tristar works great out in the field, I have no complaints, its light and easy to swing. My Ceasar Guerini has a little more weight and takes a bit more to swing it, but I shoot clays with it. Satisfied with that also. I also reload that gauge which has been at about .28 cents per load, good with that also. I have a 12 gauge that I shoot turkey and goose with. But hey I am sitting in a blind with those two so weight is not a big factor. This is a good weather app to plan your events. Allows you to plan and enter parameters and be alerted foto when the forecast is met. www.islikely.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568087049707971913.post-57831765195170680622015-02-26T18:03:01.914-05:002015-02-26T18:03:01.914-05:00Don’t kid yourself.

Unless one sinks a wad into a Brit or a decent Spanish or heaven forbid, an old American double, usually not going to find a 28 significantly, if at all, lighter than a 20 with the CZ an exception to high cost and weight—5 lbs. 3 oz. Try to find 28 gauge shells at Wally World. One thing about Ole Yella, he’s everywhere and usually better than half the cost of 28’s. (Since when do we Practical Pigs worry about costs when it comes to hunting, or guns for that matter.) I have two 28’s—a CZ Bobwhite and an M-37. I didn’t shoot them this season. Mostly shot a 20 at dove; carried a light 12 double for woodcock; more carrying than shooting, and the light 12 and 16 for quail. I never had the urge to carry either 28 this season. But who knows what next fall will bring.Gilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16586106608274313864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3568087049707971913.post-18179808457839211432015-02-23T15:20:46.685-05:002015-02-23T15:20:46.685-05:00As long as the change in the mason jar is earmarke...As long as the change in the mason jar is earmarked for something I'm safe.
