Outside of when I was just starting to hunt (when I was handed whatever was available) I've always hunted with a 12gauge. I like the wider spread ammo availability, BUT, having owned a couple of 20's now...I see there really isn't much PRACTICAL difference and the smaller / lighter frame of the 20g makes it nice to hump around all day.
