Default RE: anybody shot a pardner?

I owned one in a 12 gauge 3 1/2" for about 3 years. It shot ok. I have to say I got rid of it for 3 reasons. In my neck of the woods, a 50 yard shot just doesn' t happen very often after the trees green up. You just usually have too much brush for them.
#2 (You all may call me a sissy) it just kicked too hard for me. I found myself unconciously flinching when I pulled the trigger. I missed 2 nice gobblers on account of it. #3 The gun came with a super extra full turkey choke from the factory. I shot about a box of 10 shells through it when I was patterning it. I noticed when I got home that the choke was cracked! I took it back and they gave me another choke for it. 3 years later, when I finally sold it, it had cracked another choke. Maybe I just got a bad coulpe of chokes, but that was the last straw.

Hope this helps!
