Best argument I've ever seen for a 3.5" gun would be that they are supposedly designed to hold up to greater pressures and if you hand load that might be beneficial but as far as hunting there isn't a species of waterfowl you can hunt that REQUIRES 3.5" shells.

Or you run out of shells, and your buddy only has 3.5" shells for you...

Pfft. The widow maker killed 20 ducks and a goose 2 seasons ago and another 7 last season. Also tried to destroy my shoulder when I was patterning turkey loads last spring.

Then why pay for a 3 1/2", much less put up with a clunkier gun?

Did you just make a thread a few weeks ago about flinching with trap loads??

Rifle loads...
Re: Lookin to upgrade
Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2014 11:22 amBoth guns you are looking at are great guns. 3 1/2 is completely unnecessary in my opinion but to each his own. Biggest difference between the Remington and winchester is weight. The versa max is like swinging a boat anchor to me, but I do like them.
Re: Lookin to upgrade
Posted: Mon Mar 10, 2014 1:27 pmI can tell you that I've seen no less than half a dozen VersaCraps sent back to Remington for a variety of issues. I have never seen a Winchester/Browning or Benelli auto sent back. Just sayin...

Re: Lookin to upgrade
Posted: Tue Mar 11, 2014 4:48 pmThe Benelli M2 I used to have was a nice gun besides the fact that it rattled your teeth each shot shooting heavy 3" loads, it was still one hell of a gun. My recommendation as long as with other is on of the couple Benelli automatics.
