Bill I'm not a 12ga guy never have been BUT last year I bought a Purdey light game gun. It just spoke to me even though it was a 12. With 27 inch bbls choked .004 & .008 and coming in just a tad over 6lbs it's a joy in the field. I bought a case of the 2 inch paper shells from RST 3/4oz 8's and there magic on grouse, woodcock and quail.
Try em you'll like em.
