i have a browning 20 white lightning with straingt, english style stock. not only do i really enjoy carrying it for hours in the field, i really enjoy shooting it. it is only 2 3/4 chambered, though, but i do not think that has been a handicap. certainly not for the preserve-type bird shooting. by the way, it was sitting lonely in the used gun rack at a local gun shop begging someone to adopt it and take it home. the owner had bought it the year before for sporting clays and traded it. I got a great deal.
