Improved modified, you have heard a lot of, I don't know what you would call it. Seems that half have shot a 28 ga. and the other half belittles it. I see you are from Utah, you still have wild birds there, so if it were up to me and I wanted a 28 ga. I would get one with 28" barels, imp.cyl/full. I don't know if you were thinking choke tubes or not. Like I said I killed a lot of pheasants, yes they were pen-raised, and yes they are slower getting up, but I still got them, and didn't use any high velocity loads, skeet loads, 7 1/2's and 9's. Wouldn't do the same with chuckers and wild pheasants, I would go to 6's. Did the same with wild quail and woodcock. Never hunted grouse much. So if you read the posts with people that have owned and shot one, you can get an idea of how they, like me, really love them. Still have that BL4 28 ga, and a imported 28 ga. sxs. Bought the imported 28 ga. in 1980 for my son going hunting on our club for him to shoot, and I still use the sxs 28 for most of my hunting for stocked birds. Wild pheasants here are non-exsistant.
