BEST AUTOLOADER????

[channel bass]

I'm looking at getting a new autoloader, 12 ga, 3.5"


Can I get some feedback and opinions???

You read the gun magazines, but the best info is from those that own the guns!

Thanks

CB,
What do you plan to use it for? Deer, ducks , geese?

[channel bass]

All around---But 95% for ducks and geese. And reliability is very important b/c of all the mud, sand and salt water over here on the eastern shore!

I bought a Browning gold hunter 3 1/2" 12 ga. when they came out. Now all I do with it is hunt deer. I think its a little bulky or heavy for toting around the woods, but it does shoot real well. Since all I do is hunt deer, I think a 3" would do just fine with a little less weight.

I think the real advantage of a 3 1/2", is in waterfowl shooting so I'd say you're on the right track. Maybe some of you waterfowlers out there can weigh in on the gold hunter 3 1/2"....

I also have a Rem. 870 3 1/2" special purpose pump (turkey) gun, it kills at both ends........

I think the gold hunter comes with a factory barrel that has a lengthened forcing cone (backbarreled).

look at the winchester superx 2 , great gun , bought mine two years ago and love it , a real tight gun , just feels good

Super Black Eagle....it has perform flawless for me. I'm sure all the rest are excellent guns as well. I can not comment on them, but my Eagle is a solid, cycling, killing machine!!![smile]

.....it does not like water though, and tends to rest at the mere mention of it. [sad]

i second the browning gold hunter.i bought one in oct and i have killed a bunch of ducks and geese this year.its was hard to put down my old auto 5.[grin]

THE SBE the browning gold have shot well for me. but I shoot a 3 inch Mossberg 500 hundred and kill everyting my buddies kill if not more I get off on getting it done with a 200 dolar gun but that is just me. thats why I bow hunt two! My olds man puts me to shame with a 2 3/4 inch Browning A-5 he says just know your gun SON Good luck hunting Brother with what ever you get.

Browning Gold Hunter all the way. I too had a Benelli that did not like getting wet so I sold it and bought another Browning which performed great this year, even in the rain.
