That's what we thought a few years ago too. The lead instructor bought a 28 ga. 870, he wanted one anyway. Turned out there was no real difference to the shooters between that and a 20 ga. gas gun. I don't think the 28 ga. has been used this season though we put it out every week and the club absorbs the extra cost for shells. On the other hand Calvin says he enjoys it.

Remember, we use a .410 only when a shooter can't handle the light weight 20 gas gun, and we get him off the .410 as soon as possible.

Which explains a lot.
