The Brown Bess doesn't fall into your allowable range. If you haven't bought the Bess yet, you may want to consider a Charlesville instead. Good luck with finding a gun you can hunt with.

Here are the conversions if it'll help.

20 gauge = 15.6 mm

12 gauge = 18.4 mm

Bonjour / Goeden Dag ,

Remember that those guns are not
officially proofed like European made guns.
The proofing will add some euros to the price .

Have you had a look at the kits in
the Track of the Wolf catalog ?
Many guns are in 20 ga .

Much prettier and lighter than a Bess
