Default RE: best dove hunting gun?

It is tough to give a good dove gun recommendation until you give additional information on how and where you hunt. There area lot of different ways they can be hunted. For instance what Jeep said. Picking up hulls in a high volume field is a pain in the butt, but no big deal in a low volume open area where singles are the norm.

Discuss more about the way you hunt, then recommendztions can be more spot on.

For instance it is pretty tough to shoot a triple from a double barrel. However a stack barrel works great where I hunt because most of our shots are singles at longer distances. And we always hunt in tall grass-so if you want to save your hulls then saving them in tall grass is almost impossible. However I have shot over short fields where a long barreled double was the wrong shotgun with the high volume, fast shooting that was available. A low recoiling gas operated semi. was the shotgun of choice in that field. Tom.
