(Quality U straight/splinter 12 as the back-up for doves)
Quality 4 Bernard barreled top action 12 for early Teal
DH 16 straight/splinter for MN grouse
GH O framed 16 for home covert Woodcock (factory cylinder choke in the right barrel)
EH 32" Damascus 10 for Fall season turkeys
Grade 3 Hammer 10 for the duck opener in MO
DHE 20 for wild quail in home covers
(AH 16 as the back-up for quail)
BHE 12 #1 frame for late season Kansas/OK quail and pheasant
CH Bernard 12 for the rare occasion I go for home field pheasants
CHE Bernard 16 for February end of season Appalachian grouse
I think you're correct on the changing guns thing .

BUT...……………………………………… ,

I've got so many I wanna shoot and always been relatively decent with whatever I pick up I say to the heck with it and shoot what ever suits my fancy .

Over the years there have been numerous times I went to the dove field with a SxS and an O/U and shot equally bad or well with them both !
