I have a 1 frame 12 with factory 26" twist barrels choked .012 and .024. At 6-10 it is a delight to carry and the modern stock dimensions make it eminently shootable. I load it with 7/8 oz loads but have shot it with 1 oz. I think it would become uncomfortable with the heavier load on a 100 target course. For the guy that does not like the light weight of most Parker 20's, the 12 1 frames are a viable alternative at half the price of an equivalent 20. I certainly like mine. One of my shooting buddies threatens to steal it every time I have it at the range.
