I have a dilemma... when do you say the heck with it and just stay with a 20 gauge?
I have a pair of Franchi affinities in 12 & 20 set up with Burris FF3's because they have great triggers and I drank the red dot Kool-Aid. The 20 was bought when I had a shoulder injury and I have yet to take a bird with it.
Using TSS to get a dense pattern isn't a problem for me because hunting federal land requires non-toxic shot. The upgrade to TSS is the cost of a drink at a bar to me...
I figured the 6 pound 20 would become my old age gun, but I'm thinking it may become my primary now. I have a pile of 12 gauge heavishot to use up though.
Igniting those 2 oz 12 gauge loads can be brutal.
Take the plunge and convert?
Any performance reasons not to?
