Those are some awesome good patterns for a 20 gauge but why the 20 gauge? Is it that much lighter and easier to carry through the woods or is it just one of those things? What's next a .410? Should I just skip the 20 and go straight to the .410? I do love a challenge. Maybe it's just one of things about getting the most from the least. I don't see anyone here showing off their 10 gauge patterns.
I'm switching to a 20 mainly for the weight factor. The M2 20 gauge at 5.5 lbs is a game changer. Love that gun!
Weight, compactness, shorter barrel on some, just all around smaller, lighter, setup with lighter shells overall usually. My 12G guns have not been out of the safe in years. I really hate it for them as I have fond memories of turkey hunting with mine when the turkey population were strong back in the day.
