Sporting Clay addictions got ahold of me!

[Han not-so-solo]

I didn't like the shiny coating on the wingmaster. What would make that gun a better value?

[JohnTRourke]

The WM is much better built gun (esp the older ones). Better parts, better put together, higher end steel, better receiver. the express is as cheap as it gets. They work, but for the same money you can get a WM.

What other brands should I look at?

[Hoser]

For a pump gun in your price range? None.

[JohnTRourke]

Yep, exactly what Tom said
the 870 is the best pump out there and in your price range, that's it.

Thanks for the info guys.

I am pretty much sold on the 870, however Shootin Shop South had a Mossberg 500 used for 175. Is that a good price?

[HunterCO]

I have both an 870 and a 500 personaly I like the 500 better $175 is a good price depending on what it comes with. For sporting clays you really need a O/U, SxS or auto.

Well, that costs more and I already spent too much on the gun that led me to these boards. (Bushmaster 16" M4 A3 Carbine) So I have to go cheap on the shootgun.

The Mossberg they have at Shootin Shop South has a choke on the end that you twist to change. Is that an older gun? It looks like a big round plug on the end when you sight down the barrel.

sounds like the select-a-choke (If I'm not mistaken,.... my dad had one.)
they're ok. The nice thing about the 500 is that you can swap out the bbl pretty quick.
