Thread: Remington 1100

good stuff...and 3" is over rated in my opinion..... yip it does kill a little better BUT 90% of the time we do just as well with the shorter shells...I do like the 3" 1 1/8th oz going 1550 fps loads but the 2 3/4" isnt far behind it...
chokes n loads are funny things,often what you think you are getting is far from what you actually are...a big sheet of paper or tin or plywood tells the truth. and 40 yards is a fairly long way away.

im using kent 2 3/4 inch fasteel for parries and gamebore 30 gram steel 2 for geese in the new double.
if I could have got the gamebore load in 3,s or 4,s id be using that on ducks and parries.
but its so popular the shop had one box of two,s left so...…
the 1100 was fine when I was young dumb and full of come.
but after a day quail hunting with one uh huh never again
it took 2 days for my arms to shrink back.
the only load it didn't like were remys own 2 3/4 nitro mags
but everything else great.
settle on 40 gram falcon lead 2.s for geese eley 34 gram 5,s for ducks
then when steel came in Winchester drylock 2,s expert steel all in 2 3/4 inch loads
