RE: Accuracy and reliability of pumps?
[8D] Myson has a Remington 7600 pump in .270 this morning he shot a nice buck at 317 yds in the neck (measured not guessed) I' ve seen him do itmany times. This pump is very light and kicks a little on the bench but you never noitice it in the field. I pack a BAR in 06 and and amazed at the weight difference. The .270 will kill any deer thayt walks near or far. He doesn' t get fancy just uses factory ammo and 3/4 grpoups at 100 yds are common. At sighting in day at the range I help guys with all kinds of rifles but Remington pumps Always shoot good and some will amaze you and wipe the nose of many expensive bolt guns. A quick shoot is an advantage where we hunt in North Mo. You might get a long shot or very close in the brush. I once used a. 270 pump in South Dakota for mule deer and shot one so far away I don' t believe it myself but I had witnesses. Light, accurate , quick ,virtually weather proof, can' t be beat, No msateer what cal. you choice.
