I have quite a few shotguns so heres my review.

I have browning gold. Damn good beautifull gun. never jams shoots anything only thing it shoots just a hair low and cost me too much to loose in the water. So it stays home 90%

next my benellie is tryed and true but will miss everyso often.
use about 20% of the time

next berreta autos are very good use mine mostly for quail.

now heres my gun I use to kill the ducks.... Mossberg 875
first got this gun because it was only 289.00 at walmart in loved the camo job. second it is a stout gun can kick it through the mud and keep whaling away. also the tru glo sites are easy to bead on the ducks and I just cant seem to miss with it... shoots 3 1/2 to 2 3/4 so it goes in the flooded timber with me.

fyi the factory cammo actually helps prevent rust, another reason not to take my gold hunter with the beautiful blue.


if I haft to pick from the list I would choose berreta auto in camo

I had a Mossberg one time it makes a damn fine Jerk string pole!!! :P :P joking Pumps do the job no doubt sure is nice too be on that second bird fast tho...

I ran several boxs of light loads thru the SBE 2........Shot the Extrema 2 aswell maybe with a little shim work the Extrema would shoulder a little better for me but man this SBE2 is just there evertime right outta the box never missed a lick with the el cheapo skeet loads.... cycle'd a few 3.5's as well......... they still kick like a damn mule in it and ya better have a hold on that sucker if ya plan on shooting more than once.

:roll:
We had two 11-87s break the ejector pins within five minutes of each other opening weekend. If you enjoy shooting a single shot great. Great turkey gun but, cannot withstand the rigorous demands of shooting boxes of 3.5"s in a duck blind day in/day out. Works great as a boat paddle as well.
The guys bought two Extremas that aftenoon and have not had another problem since.

the xtrema 2 seems to be a awsome gun but the only thing is that is alot of money to tear up real easy duck hunting

I think it's a little cheaper than the SBE, and just a little more than the Gold Hunter. I just found one in my area (black synthetic) for $1060 + tax and background check, etc.
