Too much time at the skeet and trap range will skew you view of reality. Alot of those guys are more worried about impressing there squadmates and rarely if ever venture out into the field. Their ideas of what is necessary get a little out of touch.
Not hardly - impressions come from results, not bling. Around here most hunt all fall and winter.

What is necessary depends on your usage - on the target field, necessary is a gun that can handle the volume of rounds and has the handling of a high performance sports car. The 311 can do neither of those.

In the field, a lightweight, well-balanced and handling gun is more responsive to a sudden covey or grouse taking off. The 311 is neither light nor well-balanced.

That seems to be more in touch - using the best tool for the job.....
