Researcher,

Thanks for taking the time to measure/weigh your guns. I would think that a shorter set of 12 ga barrels, 26-27" would be close to the same weight of the 16's at 29" I think you know where I'm going with this idea. A 6# 8 Oz 12 would be a nice pheasant gun. Walk a bit, shoot a little! Hmmmmmm.
