Pete - tks for reply. Actually, I was kinda thinking the same thing after reading many of the other posts.
From what I can tell, the 28ga seems to be very very popular. My oldest grandson has no problem shooting my 20ga and loves it. He's pretty good too at busting clays. The one I'm thinking of (he just turned 8 )
likes shooting my .22mag but doesn't like the recoil of the 20ga. Maybe I will start seriously looking around for a 28ga. Of course, grandpa could also use it for quail hunting when he's not using it <G>.
