16s are very rare on the clay target venues these days, and if you like modern O/Us, you don't have a lot of choices in 16 ga. (Browning, Rizzini), and not all are built on scaled frames.

I am waiting for a Sterly 16 to come back from the stocker and can't wait to get it in the field. A 6-lb. 16 ga. on a svelte 20 ga. frame is an ideal field gun, IMHO. Some of the Spanish makers will build a gun on that configuration if asked.

If Beretta ever offered a 16 ga. on their 20 ga. 687 frame, I bet they would sell really well.

Such a long, long time to be gone, and a short time to be there.
