Semiauto- the Remington 105CTi II.
It's more of a field gun, but the gun loves me and I love it. |

I shoot a semi auto also I had a over/under, but I just didn't shoot well with it. The only and big advantage I see with a over/under is the fact that you can choose two different choke options at once.

My primary guns for Skeet and Sporting are all Browning O/U Citori's, XS Skeet models, with adj combs in 12, 20, 28ga and a .410 ....all with 30" barrels. I weight them all to the 12ga / so 8 1/2 lbs gross weight is optimal for me.
My backup / travel gun - when I only want to take one gun to do a little of everything or my shoulder joint is acting up from a complete rebuild last summer - is a semi-auto / Benelli SuperSport 12ga, or 20ga, 30" barrel on 12ga / 28" on the 20ga ...... |

First choice, the Beretta White Onyx the family got me a couple years back so I wouldn't have to pick up all those empties when shooting doubles.
Second, an 870, of course. |

bump.
I just got a Beretta Xplor the other day haven't shot it yet. Might be a convert to autoguns but I voted for SxS. I have a damascus 16ga belgian gun that I shoot BP shells in. I have taken a pheasant at better than 40 yards with the left full choke bbl. |

Mostly, an array of O/U's, but I also use a 1100 and a SxS. ALL are fun, especially on the sporting course

Didn't vote. You should have included an "All of the Above" button.

I only have one shotgun, it's a 12ga pump w/ 28" vent rib barrel, so that's what I use and it will do the job. If I had nearly unlimited disposable income I'd get a nice O/U and a semi for the purpose and doubt I'd ever go back to a pump for the purpose of clays, skeet, trap, birds, etc...but a pump is fine for it if that's what you have an can afford

I voted O/U because that is what I shoot most of the time, but our club has sporting tournaments for S/S, pumps & subgauges.
