My young daughter, now a mother, helped me bag this pheasant around 2004, again with the Trojan 16.

Time flies, but wonderful moments like this stay with us.

There's nothing "lowly" about a 16 gauge Trojan!
Whoops... that's Dave Suponski's Trojan 20. But then there's Jamie's 16. . .

I really like 16 ga. Just seems versatile to me. I grew up hunting with 20 ga. VH of my Dad’s (probably my favorite gun ever in my hands) and I don’t know which ga. I really prefer. I’ve never really needed a 12 for the type of hunting I’ve done.

I haven't gotten the hang of posting pictures, but I tried to post a picture of a pheasant taken in Ohio with my daughter and same Trojan 16 a long time ago. If the picture doesn't show up, I'll post it again.
