I have two side-by-side 28s. I can carry an entire Skeet round's cartridges to the line in my mouth, as might a chipmunk. No need for a vest. They weigh about as much as Mary Poppins's bumbershoot. The ammunition's more expensive than 12-gauge, though, but I simply eat ramen all winter. They are very small, and I often have to resort to a loupe to find them in their cases. Assembly prior to joining the line requires the assistance of a watchmaker. They often cause other shooters to suspend their disbelief. "Is that some sort of Weirauch?"
Distillation: I'm ambivalent about the 28-gauge.

The sideline pundits are easily confused. Some of them have only read half the brochures. If that.

Perhaps if you actually read the "brochures" you speak of, you possibly would know that Weirauch made target rifles, in addition to air guns. I own one. Loved your post. Right up until your silly insult.

Oh, I knew, peripherally. Used to coach prone smallbore. It's just a marque that's associated with air rifles, in my immediate geographic circles, if it's known at all. Never seen nor heard of a rimfire Weirauch on a line, hereabouts. My eyes would have boggled like olives. "What the actual... May I please have a look at that???"

Sure, here's the first one, it's bad had to go down to the gunsafe dungeons to pull it out. Now, please apologize for your uninformed snide comment.

Sometimes you don't know, what 'cha don't know.
