I did two informal tests today with my 870 and Benelli M2 to address the speed of semiauto shotgun vs a pump gun for home defense.
Q: I know a semiauto is much faster than a pump with birdshot. But, is it much faster with 00 buck?
If I wanted to be completely scientific, I would have...
This year, I have getting out to shoot skeet, trap, and sporting clays to help me suck less when hunting season starts. I have been able to get where I can consistently shoot about 20 out of 25 in skeet and trap. All my shooting is with Federal bulk pack 7.5s that have a shot velocity of 1200...
I have a 28" Benelli M1S90 barrel that I want to have professionally cut down to 21". They are not going to install chokes, just relocate the bead sight.
Will the resulting 21" barrel be cylinder choke? My purpose for this gun will be home defense.
I can't tell you how many times I have heard,
"The Wingmaster is a great gun. Stay away from the Express. They are garbage."
I own four 870 Express 12g shotguns I purchased within the last 6 months. Two are HD and two are hunting guns. They all have the new laminate wood stocks. After...
I own two Remington 870 Express 12g shotguns. I absolutely love these guns. I also shoot a Benelli M1 and a Benelli M2.

I am...

I have a 15 year old 12 gauge M1S90 28" hunting gun. I shoot approximately 500 rounds a year.
How long should this gun last?
Last December, I had the barrel ring shear off the gun on a duck hunt. Benelli repaired it at no charge. Just last week, I took it out and the sling swivel broke off the...
I have the standard magazine cap with the hole in the center. Can I buy a swivel stud to modify the existing cap to accept a sling?
I know I can purchase a brand new cap. But, I would rather just modify the existing one.
I wanted to ask a favor of someone with access to a ballistics program. Could you please post the trajectory 0-500 yards for:
.223 FMJ (PMC bronze)
16 inch barrel
Sight height above bore 2.8" (ACOG scope in Larue mount)
I want a 100 yard zero. My target is at 50 yards. It would be...
