Just curious if anyone has obtained one of the new A5 20 gauge guns in camo for turkey season. If so, how did it shoot?

Be careful if it has the same action/bolt system as the new A5 Sweet 16. I had ejection problems that are common with this new inertia ejection system. Sometimes if you don't have it firm against your shoulder, it won't cycle correctly. This is evident while sitting against a tree in a Turkey situation. Videos on you tube show that the Sweet 16 won't cycle if you hold it away from your shoulder when firing. I got rid of mine for a SBE 3 20 gauge which I love. Best of luck with whatever you decide. Check the reviews. Be safe
