Hi All, after a 20 yr break I am back to shooting clays. Been shooting quite a bit recently. Mostly a modified version of 5-stand (Purgatory F&G) and some trap. I have aspirations of getting into ducks and upland but that is down the road. My Beretta A320 circa 1996 is a great gun but there is much better out there now. I am overwhelmed by researching this so thought I would ping the crew for some insight. A few questions that I am struggling with:
Will an O/U beat up my shoulder after 75-100 shots vs a semi absorbing that to reload?
Benelli Montefeltro is nice and I would love an SBE - but should I go O/U?
Should I look at 20 or 28 ga?
Anyone have experience with a Fabarm Elos? Seems like a solid O/U.
How does a Citori stack up against a Fabarm? Am I looking at the wrong guns?
Leaning toward 28” barrel, should I go longer?
