Thanks, zwego! - Why would a cheap sxs, 500 bucks, seem like a weird siren song to some ear in my brain that hears" Hey! what the F***? Just pick one up and use it for whatever you want! Ya won't hafta worry aboutevery scratch and ding - just blast away!" Strange appeal, but I think I'll just pass and put that 500 bucks towards my next ridiculously expensive gun.

The CZ Bobwhite (HUGLU) arrived and went pheasant hunting...

While I have and use several very nice classic SxS's, one area that we hunt requires non-toxic shot. In that area, I use regular steel shot in the right (Open) barrel, but have to use hard-t0-find $3 bismuth shells in the tight left barrel.

The new CZ came with 5 choke tubes,is "steel-safe", and I won't be upset if it acquires a few scratches.

First day out I shot to roosters with 3 shells. That may be the first time I went hunting with a brand new gun, without first test-firing it beforehand. It worked fine.

Jerry - From what I can see, that gun looks like a rather "more than OK" piece. And you brought up a PERFECT use for one - steel shot. I'm taken aback a little, because I seem to be reconsidering my initial, rather prejudiced impression of the CZ. Again, from your photo it looks like a definitely usable hunting shotgun. I have to admit, there's an appeal that was unexpected.
