    12g for mud pie shooting only and............................................... ..20g or 28 for everything else. Mud pie gun too big and heavy to cart round. Apparently according to F&G anyway I will be smiting things left right and center,as 20g gauges have mystical propeties.

    Its a growing "movement" according to their research

    I know what you mean the 20 seems to kill better than a 12
    I used a 12 for years but went to a 20 due to back problems and I was supposed on the killing power
