I like the fast pointing 20ga much better myself. Not gonna work so hot on geese though, LOL. I only shoot clay birds so I'm just fine. Thats a nice shotgun, my buddy has a benelli M1 and it is a great shooter.

My grandfather used to blast pheasants with a bolt action 16ga. I have it now. 20ga should work fine.

I shoot skeet/poultry with my browning 12ga. Gold Hunter = win
I'd like to get a Citori 20ga sometime though, easier to maneuver etc. though I like the kick of the 12ga too. Good times.

Well...I have a good selection of guns to choose from.

2 browning sweet 16's (one is a belgium--my dads, the other is my grandfathers)
1 remington 20 guage (was my brother's but doesn't hunt anymore)
1 mossberg 12
2 remington 12's

And a few others. This is between my dad and my uncle (inherited quite a few from my grandfather who inherited a few as well).

12 gauges are nice and well...have a lot more ammo to choose from but walking around with a heavy gun gets old after...15 minutes, lol.

We have Benelli semi-auto 12 guages at work.....they're absolutely sick. Its amazing what a semi-auto filled with slugs can do to a target in the matter of 5 seconds
