Looking for a new autoloading shotgun, advice please!
Im looking for a new semi-auto shotgun, im coming from a BPS(12ga). What i will be hunting most is, pheasant and hoping to get into goose and duck. I also shoot a lot of clays... I'm Leaning toward the browning Silver Hunter, but also considering beretta A300. Is it worth to stretch my budget for the Maxus?
Let me know what you think, I AM OPEN TO OTHER SHOTGUNS. Thank you, Adam |
i would go for a lighter weighted shotgun being as pheasant hunting usually requires a bit of walking
|
browning silver is a nice gun. One of my duck hunting partners shoots one. I agree with Sul though lighter is better espcially with doing alot of walking. Although if you are used to a BPS a silver is a lighter gun

Benelli vinci is very light.....get one you will love them...i have 2.

If you like takin your gun completely apart all the time and cleaning it, go with browning gold or silver. If you want reliable, go Italian, beretta, benelli, franchi
|
What do u think of the benelli inertia system? Dont u have to clean all auto loader frequently?

Bottom line stay with the "B" guns and you'll be fine. No Browning is makin the Winchester and Beretta is making the Franchi. I am going pick up the Franchi Affinity for my son tomorrow. |

I have an old browning auto that was given to me. And I have seen brownings fail on several occasions. I also will never buy one. I love my Vinci. And if you want light it's the gun. Berettas are very good guns from my experience too. I don't think you can go wrong with either of these guns but the beretta will be heavier than the Vinci.

Browning Gold. I have two and they both shoot flawlessly. The maxus is pretty sweet and I would say thats my next gun but I don't think I will be buying another shotgun.

The main thing is pick which gun fits you best ,no matter who makes it . I have seen ALL of the manufacturers guns fail at some point,so its really up to you and what you wanna spend your money on. |

Is it worth the extra $200-$300 for the maxus? |

Maxus or winchester SX3. Both are lighter guns for pheasant hunting.
