Ran across a Browning Citori 525 in 20 gauge and it seems like a nice shotgun. My problem lies in the fact that I'm an idiot when it comes to over-unders and, a few other things as well but, I digress. The 525 is light in my hands, points well, and looks really nice, as it should for the price. I have Craftsman and Snap-on tools, they both do the job but that Snap-on stuff looks a lot better, and you pay for that. Does the same hold true for an over-under?
Is a person limiting himself by getting a 20 gauge? Is it better to say have both a 12 and a 20? I do have a Benelli Montefeltro in 12ga that is nice to shoot, but I've come to like the looks of a nice over-under. Is a guy getting that much more for say $2000 versus the $900 gun? I would add that $2500 is probably tops for cost unless there is something out there for $3000 that makes me some kind of shooting God.
I did a quick search and ran across this good read and my main question would be does all this hold true for a 20 gauge as well? My interests are similar to his, occasional trap, skeet, 5 stand, upland hunting, etc..
Thank you for you replies.
