HD and Plinking Shotguns other than 12 Ga

10 Gauge Shotguns
-----------------------
Basically 10Ga is just a novelty item. The recoil is overwhelming powerful and unstable for any bu the strongest among us and it is not practical for anything other than a range toy. Big, loud, expensive and overpowered to the point of unsuitability.

12 Gauge
---------------------
Standard for HD, combat, military and hunting small / medium game. Wide variety of shot types, inexpensive and readily available.Recommend for all avid shotgunners.

16 Gauge
--------------------
Middle ground between 20 and 12. Not very useful in my opinion, not a good training guide, not powerful enough to easily hunt larger game and shot type are limited compared to 12 gauge. 

20 Gauge
--------------------
Popular youth type. Used in training and introduction to shotguns, popular for hunting small game and target shooting. Great tool for teaching your children about gun safely and have a great time at the range at the same time.
