Harold I sold it besides I don't really consider a 16 as a small bore.

Rich brings up good point. Should'nt the 12/16 be considered BB and the 20 be the SB all by itself?

Not for Fox. They added the 20 and 16 at the same time and considered them small bore. Especially when 10 and 12 ruled the day bagging game. Personally, I consider 16 and 20 to be mid-bore, with .410 through 24 as small bore.

Got it! Now that you've thrown down the gauntlet I'll take on those 12's and 16's and may the chips fall where they may. Just make sure you spell my name right on those lovely trophies.
