When I actually used one shotgun for everything it was a 26” Ruger Red Label. I put thousands of rounds through it, has never even hiccupped. 3 -5 thousand a year just shooting trap, skeet, and sporting clays as well as waterfowl, uplan, turkey... everything but deer, really. These days I specialize more (and hunt less.) 3 1/2” Beretta auto for ducks, Merkel 1620 for birds, Encore with 24” turkey barrel for turkey, BT 99 for trap. Might use any of the above except the Encore for sporting clays.
