    Decided to get a new shotgun, gave the old one to the cousin. Now I "need" another.

    Decided to spend some dosh, narrowed it down to: Remington 1100, Winchester SX3, or Benelli SBE. It just doesn't pay to go cheap any more.

    Any ideas? Anyone with experience, please share, experience trumps all.

    Gun will shoot ducks, trap, skeet, and pests.

    Include the Brownings in that list as well, the Baikal isn't bad either I believe.

    Remington 1100 has a load of after market Gizmo's
    I have a 105CTi myself but Remmy stopped making them because the do not like skeet cartridges with low loads, shame really.

    consider how much you have to spend.
    Fantastic value in S/H at the moment!

    The browning is a lovely semi auto, only comes in Right hand though :(
    And I use lefty!

    A good clay ground with a wide selection of guns that can be taking out and tested,
    Then pick the one that suits best;)
    You can spend as much as you like but you mite hit nothing with one of the above.

    +1 Good advice, many make the mistake of looks before fit. Very important in a shotgun, more so than in a rifle I believe;)
