For the traditionalist, the Churchill 528 side-by-side shotgun wont disappoint. Built on a traditional side-by-side design the 528 features finely figured Turkish walnut with a steel nickel finished receiver and a gold mechanical trigger. The side-by-side barrels have a concave rib and front bead sight for quick target acquisition and smooth follow through. It comes with three choke tubes and the receiver size becomes smaller as bore diameter becomes smaller. You may not be guarding the payroll coach wagon out west but this side-by-side wont set you back a paycheck either.

Caliber Dictionary
The Below Information Has Been Provided From Our Gun Caliber Dictionary And Is Meant For Informational Purposes Only. It Is Not Intended to Describe The Unique Specifications For This Ammunition.
The 28 gauge was introduced in 1903 by Parker Brothers, famous for double-barrel shotguns. With a nominal bore diameter of .550-inch, it is considered a "small gauge" shotgun, and 28 gauge is one of the four officlal events in American skeet. Case length is 2 3/4 inches and the standard charge is just 3/4-ounce of shot. That said, with modern shells the 28 gauge is surprisingly effective on both clay targets and upland birds. Although definitely an "expert's shotgun," the 28 gauge has the advantage of low recoil, can be built into very light shotguns, and is much more effective than the .410. Over the years it was kept alive mostly by serious skeet shooters, but today is often chosen by serious upland bird hunters. Because of pellet count it is most effective with smaller shot sizes (7 1/2, 8, and 9), so is rarely employed by waterfowlers. — Craig Boddington
