That may be a little optimistic, I like to say the 28-ga has the kick of a .410-bore and hits like a 20-ga. The 28-ga is a very efficient load and will ink-ball clay targets just like a big gun.

In my area, 28's have been gaining popularity with dove hunters for some time. I think the Benelli is in response to the 28's expanding market share. It's a whole lot cheaper than going after dove with a $10K+ tubed clays gun. Too bad the price of ammo hasn't come down, too. If I didn't reload 28s, there's no way I could shoot them as much as I do.
