| Just curious as to what the majority of you guys shoot. I shoot a pump. Seems like the majority of y'all use break action guns |

My 16GA is a SxS only because I like Mule Eared shotguns.
My other shotgun is a 870 28GA pump. |

My answer "pump" is not fully correct, as I also shoot a 16 GA combo gun.

And my answer, "break action single shot" is inaccurate. That's the H&R. But I also shoot a pump and a O\U.
Poorly worded poll. |

| I responded O/U, but also use a SxS and break action single shot shotguns too. |

| I just started shooting a CSMC M-21 16 gauge skeet gun. Skeet chokes with 28 inch vent rib barrels, straight grip, single trigger, and a beavertail forend. 1 ounce Remington reloads of #8's crushes targets. |

I also cannot make the poll work properly, as I would need to be able to answer both pump and SXS.  |

| I'm limited by the choices available. I shoot SxS mostly now, but a good O/U Browning was my choice for 25 years. I still shoot my 870 pump as well -mostly for waterfowl and turkey. |

Well how do you want to read the poll?
1. What do you shoot the most (Then vote once)
2. What are the actions you shoot? (Then vote multiple times - once for each action).
Of course I don't know what the data is supposed to tell us anyway. |
