cheap shells quite expensive shells quite expensive inexpensive

which one do you reccomend because i shoot squirrels all the time with a 44 magnum pistol and i need the best all around gun on the list
p.s. i own all of these guns and need advice on my 28 because i only hunt turkeys......... itis a good gun for them because it is perfect for turkeys but i dont know about rabbits.









Not sure where you are from, but you may want to check your state's game laws. Here in Pennsylvania it is illegal to shoot squirrels with a centerfire rifle cartridge. Rimfire only. As far as the shotgun goes, Paul hit that one solid. The 28 ga. is a fine bunny and grouse gun, but too far on the small side to be a good turkey killer. A 20 ga. with 3" shells would be on the bottom end of acceptance in my mind...............
