I got to shoot the little 20 on Sunday and its cyl/cyl choking was not a problem. I shot with my buddy who is a Beretta OU guy and his 18 yr old son who surprizingly strongly prefers SXS's. He shoots his grandpa's Ithaca 12 Nitro Special very well and his CZ Bobwhite 20 SXS that he won at our RGS banquet. I gave him the Parker 20 to shoot and a box of 3/4 oz loads and he rarely missed. At the end of the day, he didnt want to give the Parker back--said it would make a great high school graduation present--I love the kid but told him he could hunt with it anytime he wants. He thinks the old guns I shoot are cool and he also was shooting my Ithaca Grade 3 12 damascus and Lefever G 16 quite well. Have to keep him from going over to the dark (ou) side.
