It actually shoots the Remington Premier 3" magnums with the Barnes bullets best, but of course those are now discontinued 🙄 Talk about recoil though, they'll about rattle your teeth out.

My Encore 20 gauge liked the Remington Copper Solid I think it was. Had the petals that sheared off.


Yeah, my Dad's 870 liked those solids. They discontinued those for the Premiers, and now those are discontinued too. I still have 4 or 5 boxes, which should last me a few seasons. I'm not overly fond of heavy recoil, so I shoot slugs as little as possible.
