Thread: 28 Gauge

Lighter and faster is almost a myth to be fair.
I shoot an F3 (34" heavy) for upland and targets and a smelly Benelli 20 G (light) for everything else.
I do not notice any difference or need to change anything with either to fill my bag or smash a clay. Shotgunning is all about timing.
Technique will give you time no matter what the target or start position.

If your swinging a gun along time after you mount it, to hit or miss then maybe you need to adjust your style or a lightish gun will suit you.
Get a 20 or a 12. You will soon realize you need to have done a bit of shooting with success, to operate a light gauge gun and you would just sell it for something bigger if you are not put off in the first place.

When you come down for a cham we can sort you out on some clays and gun choice.
That is if I ever get out of here with all the snow😆
