Thank you for the quick response.

 

I am going to accept that answer. The 3 1/2 mag shell discernment made that decision.

[Super Nova - Nova]

Hi All,

Getting ready to purchase a Super Nova 12 gauge but noticed that the Nova is about $100.00 cheaper. It appears that one is paying the extra $100.00 mostly for the recoil suppression characteristics.

 

If this is true or mostly true, is the recoil suppression that good or might it be better to p[urchase the Nova and get a "Limbsaver or Kick-eez" recoil pad.

 

Thank you ahead of time

[Barrel Length - Super Nova]

Hi All,

I am about to purchase a Super Nova 12 gauge and a question has arisen. According to the store representative, any shotgun barrel longer than 24 inches does not improve or increase any "real" reach distance. The store representative stated that barrels that are 26 and 28 inches long only offer a better "swing" feel and that is it.

 

Is this true? My thoughts were always that the length of a barrel up to 30 inches was for futher reach with magnum loads?

 

Thank you

Steve
