So it's the distance/range?

Still looking for the 11 round extender as the 9 is nice but 13 would be ideal!
how do you like the speedfeed stock?
Welcome to a new disease called 3 Gunning. I have used a 590 pump and then Remy 1100 and Beretta 1201 all for 3 gunning. Go with a semi, if you ever have to shoot from the prone pumps suck large. In Canada, yes the pumps have a shot advantage but a fast shooting semi is the way to go for me. Cylinder shoke doesn't get the job done in my eyes. I see many shooters needing to take two and three shots to knock a plate down while a shooter with a choke blows them away everytime with one shot if they do their job. I/C is what I use and it does me fine.
Clays are not the problem...
It's all the steel.Most of the shotgun targets engaged at "club" matches I attend are steel and at any major match it's pretty much 99% steel.
Poppers, plates... They all need to be knocked down hard and fast
Almost impossible to achieve consistantly with a cyl bore.
'Just sayin'.
No...Nooooo...Nooooo...
It;s the target(s)
The 3-gun match DeBeato speaks of had as part of one stage a "Texas Star"...
The distance to the target was perhaps 15-20 yards...
Those shooters runnin' their cyl. bore shotguns experienced great difficulty when it came to knocking the plates off...
Like I said.. steel needs to be hit hard... You need to land that entire shot column, or at least most of it on target.
Hitting a popper with 12 #7 or #4 pellets just ain't gonna empart enough energy to knock that ##### over...
so what your telling me is not to waste my money on a 100 dollar stock when i can get a 50 dollar on that would do the job nicely?
Can't go wrong with not having to reload...

20ft...? Far cry from 15-20 yards...
That's fine, but... If you run into a Texas Star that has stiffer mounts or heavier plates.
My point is... If you know for sure you're only gonna run into clays and weak steel then sure... Go with cyl. bore. if that's what you like
But if you think you might venture farther than your own backyard I'd say err on the side of a tighter pattern and spend a little $.

My preferred set up for Canada is the Benelli Supernova
I have a +7 extension so it can fit 11 rounds in the tube +1 in the chamber.
24' barrel
I have modified the loading port, opened it up, and my reloads are effortless.
I agree with the requirement for chokes.
I use a light modified for pretty much everything except stages where I encounter mostly clays at reasonable distances.
There I toss in cylinder to open up the pattern a bit.
I think the nova/supernova have many advantages over remington/mossberg.
for the US, Benelli M2.
Lightened bolt carrier, opened up loading port, extended lifter to avoid "benelli thumb"
both shotguns have bead sights for faster target acquisition.
I find ghost ring too slow.
I would suggest searching on some of the US sights for similar discussions.
They are way ahead when it comes to playing around with the shotguns

very nice but the keltec has got to be cheaper!
