Hello, I'm new to shotgunworld! I just picked up a Beretta Silver Pigeon IV, and I am in love. I went to my local range for the first time last week, and found a new passion. I hunt and have shot shotguns for years, but never like this!
I am on the hunt for a gun for my wife. I include her in all of my hobbies, as she is my best friend. She doesn't hunt, but she said she thinks she could hunt for pheasant, so this is my motivation. I would love to take her hunting with me.
I am looking for a shotgun with the least recoil, that she would enjoy shooting. Currently, she is assigned to her ruger 10/22 and loves to plink with me in the woods. Shes such a natural, better than most guys I know, really a good shot.
Can anyone recommend a shot gun for me? She is 5 foot 5 inches tall, about 125 pounds. I am a BIG beretta fan, so in the beretta lineup, what can one recommend? Money is not a problem in this case, I plan to buy the best, and use it for life, as I do with all my guns. Should I go with 12 ga or 20 ga? I want her to shoot trap/skeet, and eventually go pheasant/duck hunting with me later on down the line. I want her to get confident, and be proficient with this gun. Any recommendations? She is scared of shotguns, but I have shot some around her without ear protection, so she assumes the recoil is terrible.
Please let me know, thanks in advance ladies and gentlemen!
