What good, quality shotgun can I buy for $350-$500?

February 13th, 2011 by eranio

I think i would prefer a 12 gauge, but I am not set on it. I plan on using it to hunt pheasant. Also, I will plan on trap shootin as a hobby. I may even compete. Anyone think they can point me the right direction? Big 5 is having a sale on a mossberg 12 ga 590 for 369.99… are mossberg shotguns quality? They also have a remi 12 ga 7 shot for the same price. Either of these good deals? Thanks for the help!!!!

Choke tube to use on Mossberg shotguns for self-defense?

November 17th, 2009 by eranio

Assume some of the popular Mossberg shotguns like all-purpose 500 or 535 (they use Accu-Choke tubes), or 835 (uses Accu-Mag tubes). I provide the link to Mossberg list below.

My question is which tube to install for self-defense. You could consider two cases: one inside home, and one outside. I would assume the best would be the most open tube, Mossberg lists "skeet" as the most open. I assume you cannot use all-purpose shotguns designed for choke tubes without a choke tube installed. How come Mossberg does not have a straight cylinder tube with no constriction? Skeet is the most open tube.

Another factor to consider is buckshot size or birdshot size. Assume 12ga. I plan to have 1-2 birdshot shells in the front, followed by buckshots with increasing pellet sizes up to the max 5 shells in the magazine.
