What do you like most about your trigger shoe? I just had it and put it on there.

That would be handy on my Benelli Super Nova. That's about high it shoots.

I had trigger shoes on target revolvers back in the 70's when I was shooting a lot of bullseye leagues. I feel they're beneficial in that. Never thought of trying one on a shotgun. I'll get comments nowadays when at a pistol range and shoot in a bullseye stance instead of the tactical stances everyone uses today.

I had one on a varmint rifle years ago, don't know what ever happened to it.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

In about 2002 or 2003 I put a Swarovski 1-4x24 30mm scope with a circle dot reticle on my SBE....I shot it most of one year killed 6 or 8 turkeys with it then had a miss took it off and went back to beads. My eyes are getting older and I've decided to put it back on this year. I have both wood and synthetic stocks for my SBE's and 4 different barrels....they both came with mobile choked barrels. I just took a 24" Crio choked barrel to the Cerakote guy today. Do you add height to the comb so you can get a solid cheek weld?

My Savage .22 Hornet over 3" 12 gauge. It has taken many turkey and a few varmints. Picture taken in a prairie dog town where the Hornet is good out to 150 yards. I also have a .45-70 barrel insert for the 12 Ga barrel accurate on deer out to 100 yards..

Nice looking rig crshelton. Which do you feel more, a 3" 12 gauge or a 45-70?

No it lines up perfect....those are 30mm low Tally screw lock rings sitting on Tally bases. The gun actually seems to recoil less with my head more erect and the recoil pad down on my shoulder better. https://youtu.be/aXMLyoRhoOQ

I could see that. I coached a lot of kids in SCTP for many years and most people do not know that you get hit twice with recoil. Once in the shoulder and once in the jaw. There is more than one reason we would tell the kids to keep their head down on the stock.

There is more than one reason we would tell the kids to keep their head down on the stock. Intertia guns, like the Super Black Eagle, do little to reduce felt recoil. Gas guns are much better at softening the recoil. There's no eliminating the wallop of a 12 g 3 1/2" load of #5, but felt recoil with a gas gun is significantly less than with a inertia gun given the same load. I like my A5 for it's weight and handling, and its a breeze to clean. But in terms of shooting, my Maxus and SX4 are far more comfortable. I can see why someone would want to get their face off the stock shooting one. That scope is high and you'd have to lift up a normal cheek weld to use it. I do susect it might be high enough to compensate for the high shooting characterisitcs of Benelli SBEs and Super Novas at turkey ranges.

That's a high scope, LFC. You mount it that way so you can fire it from the hip and still use the scope at the same time?

"Inertia guns recoil more, blah, blah..." Nobody mentions the recoil from their Remington 870, Mossberg 835, H&R single shot, SxS or O/U. Why is that? The inertia guns recoil less than those pump guns lots of guys tote around, yet the inertia guns seem to frighten some hunters. Silly mindset. I don't choose an inertia gun for clays games because some extra weight and the gas operation of a dedicated clays gas gun makes 200+ rounds in an afternoon on the skeet range easier to absorb. But I'm not gonna lug that pig for miles through the national forest to make the shot I need to kill a gobbler. What I do need is a trim shotgun, dead nuts reliability and ease of cleaning dust, forest floor duff, and after being caught in a thunderstorm on the mountain and catching a good soaking. That is where my M1 shines, takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I've hunted that camo M1 and it's brother Tactical model for near 30 years in all sorts of conditions without the slightest hint of trouble. More turkey content...

"Lug that pig for miles..." My gas Maxus II 12g 3 1/2" 26" is 6 lbs 14 oz. My inertia A5 12g 3 1/2" 26" is 7 lbs 4 ozs. The the lighter Maxus II has less felt recoil. And arguing reliabilty between intertia guns and gas guns is just dumb. Gas guns just aren't that hard to clean.
"Nobody mentions the recoil from their Remington 870, Mossberg 835, H&R single shot, SxS or O/U. Why is that?" They do.
