Ive used 1100s all my life so the natural upgrade to get 3.5" shells was was the 1187. So far i like it alot, im using a modified choke, with Fiochhi BBs in it until the geese quit flying then i will use 2s for ducks. I missed a couple shots i know i would of had had i not upgraded, but i feel that is because im just getting used to the slight differences in the guns

if you say so. i aint gonna get into a ballistics discussion w/ ya but i prefer smaller dia. pellets. they penitrate deeper which is what it takes to get through tough feathers/down. bigger pellets dont peitrate deep enough to suit me. but glad your havin a good time. kill em all!

the differance you pointed out is a little further exadgerated. do some research on internal balistics and terminal balistics then get back to me. you still ahve to have sectional density. also i never said anything about using larger shot on smaller birds homeslice. ive been reloading my whole life and have shot enough stuff w/ about every thing to draw my copnclusions. the wound channels are always deeper w/ the slightly smaller shot sizes then the larger T's F's BBB and BB. think about it, why do you supose the super slim arrow is so popular.........

So, I've done my "research on ballistics 101."
And in my experience, small shot is easier to hit your target with, but will not cause as much damage as larger shot. This is simply my argument and point of view.

hahaha whered you copy and paste that from. and as for my point w/ arrows, take the broad head out of the equation. the smaller dia. arow will penitrate much deeper when all things are equal.
and as far as carboin being lighter then aluminum, a easton 400 weighs the same as a 2216 easton aluminum shaft so ide say that blows that theory.
