I like my uncle's old 1930 vintage Ithaca NID SxS double 16. Has two triggers so you can choose what you want to shoot at what range. Ejectors and 30" barrels choked IC and very full. I load it with 7 1/2s in the open barrel and 6s in the tight one early in the season, then 6s and 5s later on. Works.

When I go out to the high plains (KS, SD) where the birds are wilder and the cover is shorter, I take my Ruger Gold Label SxS 12 with an IC tube in the right barrel and a full in the left. Usually load it with 5s in the open barrel and 4s in the tight one. So far regular 2 3/4" high base shells have worked fine, even for late season. And the GL kicks like crazy with 3" magnums....
