I used a 20 gauge on turkey for years, but recently have switched to a 16 gauge Winchester 1200. Mine is in natural wood and blued steel too. All this hype about triple coated Hevi-shot 3-1/2" ... |

If all you ever wanted to do is shoot upland game a 16 GA is a no brainer. If ducks over decoys is the extent of you water fowl hunting and you are willing to reload shells a 16 GA is still a great c ... |

Hello and welcome. I’m just down the road from you in Freetown. Shotguns in general are interesting; but 16’s in particular are amazing machines. |
