Hello all,
I'm brand new to the forums and wanted to get some advice regarding my potential purchase of an 870 Wingmaster. After shooting a friend's 12 ga. 870 I'm considering buying one myself. The gun handled great and I was comfortable with the various 12 ga. shot that we ran through it (however, I'm not sure that 12 ga. is necassary for shooting clays). I'm a rifle/pistol shooter but am fairly unfamiliar with shotguns and what to consider when buying.
I'll be shooting trap, skeet, sporting clays, etc, but not hunting. I'd like info on: barrell length, recommended gauge/chambering, steel v. lead shot ability with various chokes, and year/price data (and any other relevant information I might not have requested).
I know these questions are vague and general but I'm basically just starting my research and want expert opinions.
Thanks in advance,
