Why get a 20 gauge?

Chip, it has to be apples to apples to be valid.

"Kick" is subjective. Recoil can be measured.

Cherish that 20 gauge...
 
Aren't 20GA quite abit cheaper to shoot than 12GA? Thanks for the post, I've been trying to pick a 12/20GA for my first shotgun. 20 might be easier to get me started.
 
Just depends, locally, & for what flavors.

I've seen some same-same 20 gauge shells going for a bit more than 12 just because it's not as "common." Seems sometimes to be a "specialty ammo thing." Go figure.

You'd think that less stuff should equate to less $$ - not always. Price 28 gauge shells sometimes. Should be less than 20 - not so usually. & then there's that ".410 thing." They get way pricey sometimes .....

Supply & demand & what the buyer will pay - economics in action. ;)

Where can you get a 8 guage shotgun? And where can you get modern ammo for it? I thought they were illegal except for industrial use.
