Forget the 410 and the 20g and get a 28g, you won't be disappointed.There are so many good stories here. A small-bore shotgun is on "the list" for sometime in the future, maybe it'll have to be sooner rather than later...
Nice bunch of guns.Any of them 28 gauge?
Bah humbug!!!Forget the 410 and the 20g and get a 28g, you won't be disappointed.
Sounds like the good advice to me.Forget the 410 and the 20g and get a 28g, you won't be disappointed.
Are you trying to say ,we are a bad influence on you Max?
Be careful,after you get that first 28 gauge,it is quite easy to become an addict.There are so many good stories here. A small-bore shotgun is on "the list" for sometime in the future, maybe it'll have to be sooner rather than later...
Mehbe….Are you trying to say ,we are a bad influence on you Max?
All of them. 2x28 savage model 220 hammerless from 1939-40. One model 220a from 1954+. One Stevens 94c late 50s. One Cooey 84 pre Winchester crapola! The oldest 220 28 gauge is deadly on anything from Huns up to pheasant with Winchester one ounce 7.5s and 6s if I do my job. All of them I have restored/upgraded except the Stevens. Some of those old single shots have very nice wood if you treat it nicely.
That's great, that they are all 28 gauge guns.In the past I had a near mint Savage Model 220 28 gauge.Beautiful little gun.One of the ones I should of kept.
I too have had good results with the 1 ounce Winchester loads.Over about eight years. My second Utica 220 I got recently. I have many more in 20 gauge, 16 and one 12 guage and .410. I also shoot an AYA no. 4 and a not common B. Rizzini round action with double triggers and 29 inch barrels.That's great, that they are all 28 gauge guns.In the past I had a near mint Savage Model 220 28 gauge.Beautiful little gun.One of the ones I should of kept.
Nice collection.Did it take you long to put it together?
