Harry.......seems like the last time i cut by the stick was 10 or 11 cents a stick. Where i was from growing up, everybody raised tobacco. Now back home noone does. Its' a shame really, but i guess it's for the best?

I have used only a 28ga on quail for the past 30 years & it is devastating with a one oz load. In the recent years it has been a VH with 29 inch barrels and it kills em dead out to 35+ yards.

Art, since you are a Remington guy, I suspect that your 28 gauge VHE skeet may be D. Lee Braun's old skeet gun. McCormack and I let that one get away at the Baltimore Show several years ago for lack of good sense and money. Tell me if that's your grouse gun.
