No "biggie" I have Elmer's book on shotguns incoming, got lucky with Jim C.'s list and jumped right in. Forgot he was a big fan of 16 gauges with long barrels and tight chokes- but 55 yard pheasants-- maybe overhead driven birds, where the vitals are in view of the gunner- but wild flushing birds (rough shooting) I doubt the clean kills at that extreme yardage..
