Not to rag on you but, I think you should of got a SBE for what kind of hunting you are doing. The wood stock gets very heavy after awhile. The SBE is simply the best suto you can buy. Period.

how about some reasoning there NovaMan. i considered the SBE, but choose the Monte, my reasonings,,,,

 

even the 24"synthetic stocked SBE is heavier than the Monte,

3.5" rounds,,,dont like'em, i think they are a marketing ploy to satisfy the i got the biggest on the block syndrom. 95% of the time this weapon will shoot 2.75 light loads.

 

remington express magnum loads, 12GA 00,, as per thier site

 

http://www.remington.com/ammo/ballistics/shotshell/buckshot.htm

 

3.5" has a velocity of 1125 ft/sec

3" has a velocity of 1225 ft/sec

2.75" has a velocity of 1290 ft/sec

 

so they are not more powerfull as the major misconception leads you to belive, and another reason i dont want one
