The 6 Best Shotguns for Hunting

By
Whether you are shooting waterfowl or deer, shotguns are a hunter’s main tool of the trade. There are plenty of different shotguns to choose from, but which are the best for hunting? Here are a few, from the venerated Remington 870 to the Beretta A300 Outlander, that are sure to help you bring home dinner. 
Benelli M4


Remington 870

The Remington 870 is one of the best shotguns in its price range. The 12-gauge shotgun is highly versatile and has been a mainstay of the hunting community since its debut in 1950. For more than half a century, it has been the shotgun of choice for everything from pheasants to waterfowl and deer.

Winchester Model 1912

This is another classic shotgun that has proven itself, but the pedigree of the Model 1912 has more than a century of history. You may still even have grandpa’s shotgun, and it very likely still works like a charm. It is a simple, clean, and most importantly, reliable waterfowl shotgun that has evolved to keep up with the times but still has the essence of the original shotgun from 1912.

Benelli Super Nova

The last of the pump-action shotguns on this list, the original Benelli Nova, a standout waterfowl shotgun, was updated to the Super Nova with a better stock design for recoil. The original was a novelty in the 1990s for its synthetic stock, but this has become much more commonplace. It became a mainstay with duck hunters thanks to its corrosion resistance.

Benelli Super Black Eagle 3

With an inertia-drive system, the SBE3 is one of the most reliable semi-automatic shotguns available. Like the Super Nova, it is a favorite of waterfowl hunters. The recent BEST model offers a new finish to stop rust and corrosion, helpful for saltwater and coastal hunters. It is one of the best, with a price tag to match.

Beretta A300 Outlander

Unlike the SBE3, the Beretta A300 Outlander is a highly reliable semi-automatic shotgun that will not break the bank. It is easy to disassemble and clean and comes with the reliability Beretta is known for.

Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus

The flagship Beretta semi-automatic hunting shotgun, the Beretta A400 gives the SBE3 a run for its money. It has one of the best recoil reducers on a gas-powered autoloader shotgun, with a bigger front end than you typically see on 12-gauges. Despite its size, it is usable by just about any size hunter.

It’s the rare fan of firearms who doesn’t appreciate having at least one conversation piece in their collection. That can be a family heirloom, a homemade build, or a favorite shooter. However, a home-run option for a gun people will talk about is gifting your favorite gun enthusiast a high-quality but distinctive firearm. That could be an antique or vintage model, like a Dreyse M1907, or something new and unique, like the Kel Tec KSG . Give them something to talk about with one of the following distinctive gun gifts. 50 Beowulf Dreyse M1907 The Dreyse is a unique and certainly distinctive looking early automatic. Superficially, it looks quite a bit like the first ever mass-produced automatic, the FN 1900, and shares its chambering—32 ACP. However, the Dreyse features several distinct internal differences. Because this antique firearm tends to be overshadowed by the famous FN 1900, you can often find them relatively inexpensively. Despite their usually modest price, they have a reput

When you are headed to the range, there are some pieces of tactical gear you will want to bring with you. They will all help with convenience, allowing you to carry more or keep your firearms close at hand.

Whether you are going hunting with your Beretta A300 Outlander or taking a highly specialized AR 15 to an out-of-state competition, flying with a firearm might seem complex if you have never done it before. However, there are ways you can streamline the process to make it as simple as possible. This means you will not have to arrive at the airport too much earlier than you would for a typical flight. Here are five tips you should know about packing and declaring your firearm for your next flight. Use the Right Kind of Lock First, you will need the right kind of lock. Do not use any standard, TSA-approved lock to keep your firearms safe. Instead, use a heavy-duty lock on your case. Always keep a key on your person, but do not bring extra copies in your checked luggage. Otherwise, if you use a TSA-approved lock or have copies of the key, it is entirely possible that your gun case could be empty when you grab it off the carousel at your destination. What to Do with Ammo Most often, a
