Considerations & Trade-offs
- Pump-action operation may be less familiar if you primarily use break-action or semi-automatic shotguns.
- The 20-gauge chambering offers a lighter-recoiling option, but it may not suit hunters who prefer a larger gauge for their specific use.
- It is configured for right-handed shooters, so left-handed users may find the setup less convenient.
- The included modified choke provides a defined starting point, but the interchangeable choke system means you may still want to tailor the setup to your intended application.
