If you get an Over and Under you can make your ammo last 33% longer !

So what's the story with your Avitar Pic CootKiller - bad day ???

Something about a pump - makes you re-aquire target after shooting
and racking her back - I am about 75% deadly with first shots and
even higher second shot kill percentage....

With an auto still 75% first shot but much lower second shot kill
percentage - take doubles and triples pretty regulary even out of
5 or 6 bird groups that work in with my 3" BPS or old Mossberg 500....

Outshoot almost every autoloader owner that hunts with me every
time out in the field - and a box of shells lasts me 3 or 4 hunts - where
they need more than a box on every hunt - LOL

Giga if that was true every professional sporting clay and trick shooter would shoot pumps!! Actually a auto has less recoil which helps in getting back on target quicker!!

DDM - If that were true every professional sporting clay and
Olympic shooter would shoot an autoloader....

Only guy that regularly outshoots me carries a Browning Over and Under
and I swear he can reload so fast that if you blinked you would miss it
we have had the GW race over to find that unplugged gun several times
because between us we kept a steady volly going into passing geese and
broke wing cripples like we were shooting full auto Saiga drum fed pieces....


PS - Ever seen Tom Knapp shoot his pump ???
Seems he can get back on target pretty darn quick ! ! !

World Record Achieved
On July 19, 2000 Tom Knapp, with his pump Shotgun in one hand, threw eight clay targets in the air with his other hand and broke every one of them with individual shots in an amazing 1.87 seconds creating a Manually Operated Pump-Gun classification.


LOL

I've shot skeet tournaments with both a pump and auto, and my scores were always higher with the pump. I'm just more comfortable with a pump, but some folks rather an auto. It's all personal preference and what's most comfortable to the person shooting.

Giga next time your in bayou blue bring your pump and prove me wrong. Theirs is a sporting clay place right down the road!! Loser pays!!

Cjb you can get in on the shoot also lol

i choose pumps because i don't rush the second shot

Terry you ever shot at Southern Shooting on the Thibodaux bypass rd? When I worked for Dolphin we had tournaments there, and it's a real nice place also.

We use to shoot their!! On certain nights you could shoot at night!! Real cool guy made the 5 stand to easy and never changed it!! Bayou blue has good courses and keeps it challenging

There's a nova on LA sportsman for 400$ right now.

Mossberg 835 Ultimag. Why use anything else wif steel shot. The barrel was built for it. The only thing I might like more would be the mossberg 935. Mine shoots #2 shot best. Always 3 1/2" during duck season. I never wish I had a little more. The only issue I have ever had wif my gun was when the spring in the magazine rusted out and broke into pieces in the middle of the season and I had to change it.

And I never shoot anything but estate shells. The others cost too much.

Two title thingys are called shell latches. Giga u seem pretty knowledgeable abt puttin oiled fingers in rusty holes.

Get one of each! I bought the Supernova two seasons ago and it has been flawless- ever since I put the shims in to adjust the stock I haven't missed much. I have four BPS's, and I plan to use the 20 gauge model this season a lot more- teamed up with a new 20 gauge Benelli Nova. I started with autos, and have worked back to the very reliable pumps, I mean they are consistent. I plan to add a venerable Remington Wingmaster next year. The pump has made me a better, more deliberate shooter, and yes, once in a while you get bruised up but not that bad. Unlike some, I actually favor the bottom loading BPS and the top thumb safety, and the Browning is certainly better-looking. On the wish list down the road are the Ithaca and Winchester pumps.

Went shoot Skeet this afternoon and the super nova won me over,
Going pick it up this week
