I bought one of the 20 ga youth models with a laminated stock several years back to turkey hunt with. Other than an extra full tube it is just as it left the factory. But didn't find any shells that patterned tight enough for me to have any confidence in using it so I went back to the 12 ga. I decided to try some different shells this year and found that Winchester load worked just fine. That is the gun I hunted with this year. Our season ended last week (March 21-May15) without me taking a bird. But I enjoyed carrying that shotgun.
Some of those high end shells are $13 every time you pull the trigger. I don't want a turkey bad enough to pay that.
Most people don't really want the truth.
They just want constant reassurance that what they believe is the truth.

TSS May be great but too much $$$ IMO. I’ve been shooting Magnum Blend for awhile in 12 ga. Have killed several over 50 yards. I have a buddy that uses it in his 20 and says the same.

Guess I'm old school. But I still believe "Whatever a 20 gauge can do--a 12 gauge can do better" I'll stick with my 12 gauge Remington 870. Bob

I used to run and gun with a Remington SP10, this isn't about weight, at least not for me.... yet. It's about something to do, just messin around with it, exploring something different. And from all I'm reading, with the advancement in shot technology, the sub-bores can/do really challenge the mighty 12.

I hear ya. It’s always neat to try something different but I hear the weight thing mentioned a lot.
