toddyboman Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 not real surprised by those numbers......good idea Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohiobucks Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I've been shooting my 1300 for about 18 years. I just started shopping around for a shot barrel for my 2 year old 870..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strut10 Posted March 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I only counted the first gun mentioned if there were multiples (unless I knew there were multiple hunters) figuring that to be primary gun of choice or use. 41 guns is not a super-accurate gauge (pun intended) of what's being used. But I'll bet if you had a sample 10 times that large, the top 4 vote getters would probably remain the same or very nearly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravin R10 man Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 enter my Franchi..I missed the pole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhino Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I'm not surprised by those numbers either Don. Popularity usually boils down to price more than anything else. I have an 870, an 11-87, and a SBEII. My Benelli is the one that hits the woods these days for several reasons but mainly because it's lighter. All will throw good shot patterns with the right choke/shot shell combination but my Benelli combination performs a little better than the other 2. All have killed turkeys though. I wonder what the popularity of choke tubes would look like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squirrelhunter91 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 I missed the pole as well but put us down for 3 more Mossbergs! 2 835's and 1 500! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhine16 Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Can chalk another up to the Rem 870 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 Hey Don I like your thinking. To think I could claim a handicap for using a Benelli. I like it. I hope Adrian sees this. He does pretty well with a handicap Nova and a 20 ga no less. lol I've used an 870 for other things though. I'm not surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goinghuntin Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Missed the poll, but go ahead and add another mark for Mossberg 500 :gunsmilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawei851 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Missed the poll, but go ahead and add another mark for Mossberg 500 :gunsmilie: Me too, Mossberg® Mdl 500 in both 12 and 20ga! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamond Archer 01 Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 Seems like remington is pretty popular. I shoot a remintgton 870 and the factory is only ten minutes from my house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flintlock1776 Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 I am not sure if I got in the poll. I love my Mossberg 835 shooting 3 1/2" Maybe we need a poll and tally on shotshells? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
