However, my draw to the 28 is being light but shootable if careful. People will say that a little heavier one shoots better, but that is true of almost every gauge. I favor the 28 in instinctive shooting situations such as grouse (in our section of the world it is practiced in almost impenterable thickets). The light weight is very important for extremely faxt shooting.

Two questions for you Art:
1. If a 28ga. Repro is a little heavier than you prefer, what is your preferred weight for a 28 for your usage?
2. What do you think a typical 28ga. Repro weighs?
