Default What are you guys shooting for shotguns?

Anything. Waterfowl guns, bird guns, defense guns. I shoot both an 870 express synthetic and an 870 Wingmaster. Thinking about an autoloader soon though, possibly a Beretta Extrema.

Default RE: What are you guys shooting for shotguns?

I shoot a Grulla 218R Round Body 20-bore double for most of my bird hunting these days. When I go chukar hunting, however, I take my old Ted Williams 20ga pump...I don' t mind if it gets all beat up when I take the inevitable tumble down the side of a rocky cliff.

I use my beloved Remington 870 Express 12GA for everything. What an amazing shotgun! [:-] It does everything you could want, and handles anything you put in it.

Just got a Beretta 3901 autoloader last week. Have not hunted with it yet, but I have shot some clays with it. Happy so far. Only paid $499 on sale. Only bad thing....it doesn' t shoot 3 1/2 in. shells.
