Gentlemen in Texas don't hunt quail with a 12 ga.! I'm a 20 ga. guy for dove and quail mostly. I HAVE, on occasion, pulled out my 30" FxF 1 1/2 VH 12 ga.for those late season high flying doves 'cause it works.
Waterfowl........all's fair. I shoot my 16s a lot over decoys, tend to go to 12 ga. late in the season. Birds are more heavily feathered and sometimes a bit shy and wary. I'm only mad at the geese about once or twice a year anymore. Then it's an Ithica Mag 10 or a 3 1/2 mag 12 ga Winchester.
