I remember Ithaca's "Roadblocker" 10 Gauge self-loading shotgun set up for buckshot and rifled slugs. The 22" barrel was effective but heavy. A slide-action model is a tad lighter and easier to carry.
A great deer shell would be a 1 5/8" 10 gauge from a 24" improved cylinder barrel. This would prove devastating on hogs and deer. It would also be a barrel swap away from a 30" extra-full choke pass shooting shotgun for geese. Another 26" Modified choke barrel would work for 2 7/8" shells for 40-50 yard duck and upland game work.
Opinions?
