Your observations confirm what some of us have been saying all-along: The pump gun is at a definite disadvantage in shotgun sports where a quick second shot is required.

It's not just the time required to shuck the cob that comes into play. Handling characteristics, recoil and reliability must be considered, too. Go to a gun club throwing registered targets and you'll see pump guns used only for trap. The other sports are ruled by the O/Us with a minority of auto-loaders.
