28 Gauge Recommendations

I enjoyed the 28ga discussion. I love side by side shotguns. My preferred quail/dove/clays gun is a Westley Richards 28 shooting 3/4 ounce hand loads.
for pheasant or a change of pace I shoot a WR 12 bore droplock with 1 oz loads. I also have a Scottish 12 bore made by Mortimer and sons. My American doubles, 12 ga Parker VH, 16 ga LC Smith field and 20 ga Ithaca don’t get shot very much any more.
If you are interested in SxS shotguns, I invite you to the “Southern side by side championship and exhibition” that takes place in Sanford NC the last weekend in April ( hopefully! It was cancelled last year due to COVID). There are thousands of side by side guns for sale there every year from all over the US and world.

Good morning,
Did you hunt w Leeuwkop at their ranch or in Zimbabwe? The ranch looks awesome, but I'll be in Zimbabwe for buffalo and whatever else we dig up.
What did you hunt for?
Vaccines?
What rifle did you use?
I feel like I need a good cotton safari shirt and an ammo belt to make the hunt feel right!
How often did you shoot prior to going?
Did you use sticks for shooting practice?
