Re: 26 versus 28 in barrell
20 Gauge with 28 barrels. Still a light weight gun even with 28" plus the longer tubes will help keep your gun swinging on crossing shots. I bought my 20 gauge CZ Canvasback with 28" barrels as kind of a specialty, early season gun. Once I found Federal Prairie Storm this gun now covers all my hunti...

As far as "commands" or saying stuff to your dog...do what you feel you gotta do to handle your dog to win the thing. I'd advise not looking at it as commands but rather "helping" the dog - after all, we are the brains of the operation. It's hard to argue that less is likely better when it comes to...

For all upland birds I use a 28" barreled O/U. With screw in chokes and the advances in premium ammunition there isnt anything that a 20 cant do. The 28" barrels give better balance and a little more out front weight to help the swing. Waterfowling I use a 28" semi-auto 12 gauge. The heavy gun isnt ...

Field Trialing is a competitive venue that gets tougher and tougher with each passing year, better dogs and more skilled handlers.
