Hello all,
I was recently invited to shoot sporting clays with a friend. I’m hooked, and now want to buy a suitable semi-automatic shotgun.
I am very familiar with pistols and rifles, but not so much with shotguns. The shotguns I own are a Remington 870 pump 12-gauge and a 60-year old break-action, single shot .410.
For reference, I borrowed a Benelli Super Black Eagle in 12 gauge for my sporting clays trip. I liked it.
I’m hoping you fine folk can recommend a good shotgun and chambering for sporting clays. It is possible the same shotgun may see some use for hunting fowl, but it would be primarily used for clays.
I also don’t know what I don’t know, so any other thoughts or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
