BrentD,
I know you said 20ga and the 20ga is wonderful. However, Rev Drew suggested a Fox in 16ga. I think this is an outstanding suggestion if your goal is vintage. I have an SW in 16ga w/28" barrels and it weights in at 6lbs 2oz.. heaviiiiier 20ga territory but still LW IMO. They are built on a 20ga frame and I wouldn't think twice about running a dozen 1oz modern shells per year thru it. Although, for the price of RST's, a couple of boxes won't break the bank for pheasant hunting.

I believe IF no-tox becomes a serious issue in upland, I would think RST or polywad will step up. I have been watching the no-tox (steel) comments as of late and B Dudley, from what I see doesn't think steel is an issue with the modern shot cups. Maybe he will chime in, or perhaps others with steel experience will comment, as it will be an issue for all of us concerned about cost.

Hope this helps,
Bill
