I'm sure you remember those Tennessee Bobs when they'd head for the honeysuckle. The gun is on the number 1 frame, although it weighs just 6 lbs. 5 oz; but after carrying the Watson 28 for a week, I really noticed the difference.

Do you have a favorite gun weight for Bobs?...or gauge? Just curious how a Southern Gentleman shoots 'em. I'm pretty sure you'd choose long barrels(?)
