Seems to be more interest now. You may find a buy in a 16 from time to time. I have three and my 0 frame is really a great gun to carry and shoot. They were not sought after for a while and one of the Invincibles is a 16 and it bounced around for a time when no one was really interested in it I have read.

I have recently purchased two, both VH . The first because it was so much more affordable than a 20. The second because I loved the first so much and it is on an 0 frame and 28” barrels. Quite a difference in the way they feel.
Thankfully I called my good buddy David Boyles and he said Yes, that is a deal.
I had her checked out today to confirm chamber measurements at 2 3/4” and find out what it was choked. Which I wanted to ask, what are the most common combinations. She is right.020 and left .07 which would be Mod and between skeet and IC. I have a number of 20 ga in different makers so was happy for a change. When you think how close 16 and 20 on bore diameter, they’re only .007
Difference . I absolutely loved shooting the first on Quail last year and can only imagine this new girl will be that much more fun.

Actually the difference between the 20 at .615” and the 16 at .662” is .047”

You are correct sir, I thought something didn’t sound right about that. I really liked the idea of this information on the back of someone’s business card but not much help if the information is wrong. Thank you for the correction.
