For quail I use a 20 ga. Browning Citori Feather, 26" barrels. For pheasants I either use a 12ga. Browning BPS, 26" barrels or a 12ga. Browning 802 ES, 28" barrels.

I use a Browning BPS too and love it. I have had it for a long time now and it hasn't failed me yet. Have used it so much that the blueing is worn off where my thumb rests and around the safety. Riffer, what engraving does your BPS have on it. Mine has Pheasants on one siddeand Turkeys on the other. I noticed that they stopped engraving the guns a few years back, so I hope your is older. They look so much nicer with the engravings.
