Richard recommended that book when we hunted together in Montana and I bought it.

an interesting quote from Brister's book

[William Davis]

I like 16s have owned several Pumps & have a 16 Trojan and 16 Parker Hammer now. Only negative is few SXS suitable 16 G shells available.

I buy RST lite factory and load the empties. Major suppliers load 16g to cycle A5 Autoloader and its a heavy recoiler in a light 125 year old Parker Hammer Gun. To illustrate the point RST sells a special A5 16 G shell

RST lite shell is a good one for a Parker.

i would believe the 12 ga to be the better gun for birds ... quail or pheasant and other birds....i could always hit better with the 12 ga...charlie
