I'm looking for suggestions on a multi purpose shotty under $1000. My only shotgun at the moment is a home defense 870.
I'm leaning toward a 20ga auto, but I'd LOVE a SxS. It seems (from my reading here) that higher quality may be had in an auto vs the same priced SxS? Also, I haven't done any goose or duck hunting (yet) so I think a 20 would be better suited for the game I'm after. I live in Eagle River, AK.
Uses (from most to least): Grouse, ptarmagain, rabbits, and (possibly) duck hunting, some skeet.
Is a 12ga much better than a 20 for geese and ducks?
I'd like quality and reliability, soft on the shoulder would be a bonus. I'm also looking for wood and nice blueing.
Rem 1100? SKB? CZ? Browning? Winchester?
Thanks,
Grizz
