[QUOTE="steveR, post: 7943077, member: 66976"] I use a Russell Hillsdon sidelock that was owned by my late Uncle until about 1976, then my other Uncle inherited it. I was given it in around 2000 and used it ever since. I had to have it restocked after an accident. Gorgeous little gun, super lightweight and perfect for my sort of game shooting. 65mm lead only, and I never shoot more than 28g, 26g for preference, if I can get them. Not suitable for steel. At my age, I will buy 2 slabs of lead shot cartridges, which will last my shooting days out... My son just bought a re-barrelled s/s sidelock. The Steelshot barrels are heavy! Not nice... I rermain unsure My neighbour has been using a 20b for game he borrowed off his sone, but TBH, he would be as well with his nice AYA, and use 26g loads to reduce the impact on a bad shoulder...
