I am in dire need of a skeet shotgun. My 870P and 870 Express both sport 18.5" barrels with a single bead. At the skeet range, I usually borrow the Rangemaster's old Remington 1100 LW 20 Gauge with a skeet choke. I can't really find any good deals around here for a used 1100 or 11-87.
My specs I am wanting are as follows:
20 Gauge
26" LW Barrel
Rem Choke Capability (Going to toss in a Skeet Choke)
Ivory Bead with metal mid-bead
Ability to use the cheap & light 7/8oz loads.
Is either one bettter than the other? This shotgun will ONLY be used on the skeet field. The only other time it may be used is in 5 Stand, but my range hasn't finished it yet.
Which would be the better buy? I know that 11-87s tend to be a bit more finicky when it comes to ammo. Just want to know if one has more merit than the other.
Thanks!
ETA: Would I be better off just buying a 20 gauge 1100 Tournament Skeet?
