I have a couple of 20 gauges with rifled barrels, two 870s, one with open sights and one with a cantilever scope mount, and a house-brand Mossberg 500 with a cantilever scope mount that I've used on hunts in Iowa. I don't know if Remington ever made a rifled 1100 barrel in 20 gauge, if they did I don't recall seeing one of them, but that seems like it would be a good choice for still-hunting in cover. I can't imaging that a sabot round from a 20 gauge would be any less effective than the same weight/style of sabot round fired from a 12 gauge, but the weight of a comparable firearm would be less for the 20 gauge and the felt recoil would probably be a little less too. Since passing age 65 I seem to be more recoil sensitive than I was as a younger man.
