12 Ga for Sporting Clay's around $1000 CAD

Wow one 1100, 2000 rounds and even better crap AA loads LOL. How about 100,000 rounds plus through one or more and then maybe we can compare
Any bit of credibility you may have had is gone now after the AA comment.
I am sorry but I have never seen a crap AA load both the vintage design or the new HS and have been buying flats of them since the mid 60's
Cheers

First off I'll explain what " and " mean as written.
They are what are called quotation marks, as in something someone else has said.

Most kids with grade 6 or better know this but carry on.........

Here's an example........"My shotgun doesn't work with these crap Double A target loads!!!"
That's what is called a quote.......got it?

Here again is my post if you would care to read it and it is a direct quote.

"There are a lot of new shooters each year that try sporting clays for the first time.
They take the shotgun they've used before with field loads and suddenly find it doesn't work with those "crap" Double A type loads supplied by the range.
Each time this has happened we have talked to the squad ahead of us and encouraged the shooter to switch to someone else's gun that will double consistently."

I chose Double A's as an example because they are quite likely the best ,most easily recognized example of the most common trap/skeet/sporting load .
If it makes you feel better you can substitute Kent or Federal or Remington .
Every one works 99.99999 percent of the time.

Each time a semi auto malfunctions the blame seems to fall on the ammunition although for the most part it's the gun.

Regarding your claim of 100,000 rounds through your 1100......is that 10,000 rounds per year for the last 10 years.......or 5000 rounds per year the last 20.......or 2500 the last 40?

Seriously you are either a terrible shot or you should be on our Olympic team.


Cheers to you too.

For one unless your business card has a few letters after your name don't start playing with me and my education vs yours I would more than likely win there also and two who cares if it is 100,000 rounds a year or after 40 years the gun shot over 100000 rounds
The years we were shooting 4 gauges 15,000 a year would be a slow year. I don't know what kind of a shot I am today but again more than likely better still than than you. I guess to give some idea if you cannot hit 95 min running the hundred best sit down and zipper it
Also today with the crap ammo being made and shot YOU ARE WRONG , switch to a quality ammo and most semi are fine it is NOT THE GUN
Cheers

Ignore. Someone is playing silly bugger it seems. Says one thing, gets corrected, then complains YOU don’t understand what was meant but not written. Ridiculous.

I bought this Akkar Churchill Orcap II.... its on sale now i paid $30 more than listed today.... its great O/U for the price. fit and finish it was everybit as nice as the CZ. Actually the finish on the metal is fantastic I like it better than the stainless finish. It came tight enough that i had to hold it between my legs to close it the first few time. after some use its just snug. I have fired about 250 rds thru it of 7.5 and its run like a champ. Even after shooting in the rain one morning the gun held up perfectly no rust or spotting. This is a quality piece below the costly Browning / Beretta price point. After using this gun for a little while I see no reason I would ever have to preplace it unless something broke. Quality is top notch, I would buy the same shotgun again given the same options available.
 
Speaking of 1100. Any one have experience with the 1100 sporting version? I'm looking to add a semi auto to the safe.

Only in 28ga and 410. Both are beautiful guns with real nice wood and never an issue but mine are hardly shot either. Choke tubes are a big advantage over the old 28and 410 1100's IMO
I had trouble getting extras however for the 410.
 
Not having read the replies before..... if I were buying a gun around the 1000 mark of be I cloned to find an 1100 used or buy a v3 on sale.
