sp1ke01 Report post Posted October 13, 2022 Highly prefer 32" barrel. Might consider 30". Don't even think about 28". adjustable comb is a plus adjustable recoil pad is a plus Brands of interest: Browning, Beretta, Miroku, Caesar Guerini, Krieghoff, Perazzi, Blaser ... Let me know what you have. Yes, I know that you don't hunt coues whitetail with an O/U *picture is just for your attention* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PRDATR Report post Posted October 13, 2022 I have a good friend who has been shooting competitively for a long time upgrading guns as he got better. Last I heard he was shooting a Kolar and I know before that he had a Krieghoff. Both are very nice. IIRC the old Don's gunshop in Scottsdale was a go to place for the higher end shotguns but I don't know of where to begin your search not. Good Luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazymonkey Report post Posted October 13, 2022 Second for Dons they had a bunch of high end stuff in there. Just don't use the gunsmith the old man is gone and a kid was working there and did a number on my new 300 win when it went in for a break a few years back.I about made them buy the gun . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
L Cazador Report post Posted October 13, 2022 Back in day when I was shooting competitive clays. Fit was the key. The difference between that 100 straight or the 98. Adjustable guns are the modern way to go for a near perfect fit! That AAAA+ wood and extra engraving on a Kolar or a Krieghoff isn't going to net extra birds! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he passed the 100K mark for birds a long time ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
