16g SXS

Very, very Nice,

 

I have a 16 bore Leech & Son which I inherited earlier in the year. Its been in my family for 3 generations and I feel very privileged to have had it passed onto me. I used it a number of times growing up but hadn't shot it for about 20 years until last season. It opened my eyes somewhat and makes my O/U 30" Beretta feel very agricultural by comparison.

 

A lightweight sxs just feels 'right' IMO. I use Eley 26.5gm no6 through it and its much more capable than me. It makes me want to change my 12 O/U for a 20 O/U and half the weight I carry around with the 12.

Not sure about that , I have one :)

Looks very nice , the 16 gauge is very under rated I think , never met anyone who has one without them having anything but praise for it.

I'm sure it brings you up a level on the days you use it 😙

And a smile when you shoot a nice bird with it changing you from a fenn tiger into a gent just for a few moments 😋

Lovely gun in the perfect gauge.

 

Once you own a 16, you'll never want to lug a 12 around all day ever again.

 

You'll enjoy owning and shooting it.

 

I have shot 16s now for more years than I care to remember.

 

Good shooting.
