JDW.......is right on. It costs no more to load a 28ga.

Ted......I guess you have met every 28ga. Well I for one don't know you and I also don't claim to be a expert 28ga. shooter. Also not everyone hunt or shoot waterfowl. If you don't own a 28 ga. seems hard to justify its unworthyness! Hell i shoot a 32ga. sxs for local quail and do just fine over points and birds at reasonable distances. But when I travel to Kansas or Oklahoma I take my 28ga. repro. Yes it's a pheasant killer too!
Cheers,
