3" or 3-1/2"

Postby MudHog » Sun Jan 22, 2006 8:18 pm

What do most of yall shoot?

I got out shot today by a guy shooting a 3-1/2" Rem. 870. Myself, I shot a 3" Rem. 870. He was reaching out and touching them and I was falling short.

Ducks today weren't thinking of landing in out decoys, much less get in real close range, so we found ourselves taking some length distant shots.

I'm considering parting with my 3" 870 and getting a 3-1/2" 870.

It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
