[QUOTE=lancemartin;3939751]Thanks RPD63, I am waiting on it to come in tomorrow to my FFL dealer here in town. I know how you feel, I wouldn't want to get rid of my other A5 either.Soon as I get a chance to try it out, I'll post the results. I plan on trying to pattern it with the modified and cylinder chokes to see how some of these new types of ammo they are coming out with, like Winchesters Blind Side, Federals, Remingtons, etc do with it. If I understand the new wads they've developed, the wad doesn't have any petals to fold back and leave the shot charge after leaving the end of the barrell, but are designed to stay with the shot charge longer, having no petals it is a cylinder cup and a tight choke takes away from the pattern. Do you have any thoughts on the new stuff, all I have been using in the 2 3/4" is the regular steel loads, the 3" mag is opening up a new world for me.[/
For the type duck hunting I do, I never really saw the need to jump on the 3 in. bandwagon. Most of our shooting is over decoys or tight in the timber. We use the everyday steel in either Winchester or Remington. My only 3 in. Gun is my dedicated turkey hunting gun. Good shooting and tell us how that Auto 5 treats you. As if I do not already know. Lol
