Who cares? You figure that if you shoot a gun 20,000 times with the average cost of $.50 per pop, you'd spend $10,000 on ammo for a $300 gun? Just buy two.

Honestly, I don't know of any test but if you are willing to supply the ammo, I'll donate my gun and we'll find out together!

I do not believe that the Ithaca was given a shot at the competition that Mossberg "won" because there was a requirement for a side ejection/loading port. This is much the same way that non-Beretta 92FS guns were excluded from the competition bought, uh, I mean won by Beretta. Don't get me wrong, I like the Mossberg but I think that Remington deserves more respect.

I'll qualify this paragraph. I am a DIE HARD ITHACA FAN. The Ithaca is the strongest, lightest, quickest, and in my never to be humble opinon, best pump action on the Market. They have never failed me. I believe that will outlast me and my great-grandchildren.
