re: Looking for Good Youth Shotgun

I was looking at an H&R 20gag Crack the other day, but figured that he will be able shoot either a pump or an auto in the next couple of years. I like the Mossberg as well that is a cool concept to grow with the child.
I really want to move him up to a 20 gag from the .410. The shells are about 15 a box and the spread is maybe 12" at 35 yds.

If the kid can handle the recoil of a 20ga, and it sounds like you're concerned with hunting ducks mostly, then moving up is a good idea. If it was more squirrel and rabbit... I'd say stick with the .410.
I tried a 20ga crackbarrel with my daughter, and the thing is just too light. Recoil is too stout with factory loads. I started loading some powder puff shells for her, and that took care of that.
My son has the single shot now, and he's shooting powder puff loads like she was, and she's graduated to that Mossberg in 20ga, with regular loads.
