i've used the 28ga... helluva gun.. quick to shoulder

I got the 20 for my lawschool graduation present from my family. Man I like that gun. My grandfather was the primary person to pick out the gun, and he's generally been a Browning man. But he compared the Veloce with the Browning side by side, and noted that the Veloce was every bit the gun of the Browning and more (more scroll work, gold inlays), and a couple hundred dollars cheaper to boot.

26" barrels, three chokes included, single-selectable mechanical trigger system (still get a second shot off even if the first shell misfires for some reason)... and as littleking put it, VERY quick to shoulder.

It's a very accurate gun too. Fit and finish are incredible (at least mine is) and it's a rare occasion that I miss a bird with it if I take a shot.

Clays are another story. I'll admit to still missing my fair share of those, but that sure ain't the fault of the gun.

Grant also has a Veloce last time I checked. There's a couple posts here in the Guns forum about them, his and mine for sure. Do a quick search and you should be able to find them.
