My 2¢ worth...... Got to fill up magazine column inches somehow.

16 a “subgauge”? Not to my notion; it does what a non magnum 12 will do in a slightly slimmer profile. I love mine, and realistically it’s no different than my late 1880’s 12 Bore W&C Scott with 2 1/2” chambers.

So herein is my take: why “ban” a 12 Bore when all one needs to do is mandate “traditional” 12 Bore game loads that duplicate modern “heavy” 20 Ga loads.... ie: 1oz, 1 1/16oz, max 1 1/8oz

This apparent “subgauge” trend/rage seems to me nothing but putting on airs......faux exclusivity.....California Cool
