Failures?? Or do you mean malfunctions? If we are truly talking failures, I would like to point out that Benelli inertia springs don't seem to break, where as the Stoeger does so with some regularity. Benelli,s don't seem to need their extractors replaced with Benelli extractors....like the Stoeger does. The disconnnect and Hammer sear on Benelli,s also don't tend to break. Next big thing is the receivers don't tend to crack as often (read almost never on Benelli).....those are failures.
Now this is not to run down Stoeger. It is a fine gun for the $$$ and with some simple upgrades it is a fine gun. It is no Breda, or Benelli but for the average 3-gunner it will do yeoman service, but it will need some Breda or Benelli parts for any semblance of longevity.

Hey I didn't get it!

Ahhhh....facebook......no wonder I can't see anything! But you already knew that. I had heard that my buddys Kenny Anderson and Nathan Payne had put a whompin on some "prafeshunal shootahs" from down south ways, But I guess I'll just have to call em...thanks for the link though, maybe Seth can use it, my dinosaur arms just aren't long enough to reach the key board! BTW my rotary phone still works if I crank it long enough.

And I suspect that the base isn't fully seated on the flat top, it is real easy to get that particular mount with one of the cross bolts up on top of the flat instead of in the grove. Seen that before! Make sure that BOTH of the cross bolts are fully down in the slot cut in the upper receiver!
-
Just like it says any results from this match up yet? Looked like a good time!
-
First load two I ever saw was the German National team and the Swiss National team in Terni Italy at the first European Shotgun Championships in 2003, first Quads were from a Finish shooter at the 2011 Euros.
I doubt I was whoopin and hollering about quad loading Mark, as I have never been that impressed with it and still don't do it. But Robbie was complaining about all the shotgun loading of the new style 3-gun match and he said he didn't want to practice that much to get good, so I was telling him about twins and quads as a way to be competitive without the time consuming practice for Weakhand.

I have always run a stock bolt handle. After those big old aftermarket handles break off, get bent on a port, fall out for the 15th time ; you will like the stock one too.
-
Payne in your Johnson?? Take the shot Mark, take the shot!!
-
Physically speaking they all drop like rocks........32 feet per second squared!
Use heavies if it makes you feel good. I have never seen the need for the ranges we shoot, but if they give you confidence, get er done! I only use heavies when I need penetration and am limited to a carbine caliber....and steel and paper DON'T need penetration.

I wasn't trying to yank any chains. I am driving a large truck and already have more than enough of all types. The clarifications was for the poor first timer who is flying in and the last chance they will have to get ammo will be a couple hours away. Just a bit of clarifying never hurt anything and for you J.J. , at this late date I say XOXOXO
-
J.J. posted it as ROUND COUNT, and he is one of the match directors, but everyone is saying it is TARGET count. I can't find any place where it says Target count on the web, so I am confused! Anyone know for sure. I leave tomorrow morning.
-
Ok so which is it??? ROUND count....or TARGET count???? That is a huge difference!!!

DPMS Barrel with a LeVang in line comp.

IT AIN'T HER!!! This gal can shoot!!!

G.I. aluminium, had WAY too many P-Mags fail by cracked feed lips, rough internal surfaces causing nose dives etc. And when it is really cold....well most P-Mags don't.
-
Hmm...Beretta......Italian........Metric threading. Just some random thoughts.
-
Because 3GN is desperate for sponsors??
-
A pair of who??? Same scope as the AR-15 she can shoot Sub MOA with!
-
I think Hurley's post falls nicely into the "meh, if you can shoot an AR-15 sub MOA hen you can shoot an AR-10" comment made right around post number 3!!!! Quit doubting yourself, get some good ammo and get to work. 308 isn't a mystery, there is tons of info on accuracy loads. The old standby is 42 grains of 4895 and a 168/175 grain Sierra Match King Bullet.
See you in Raton in a couple weeks!!! Kurt

You haven't given it any good ammo yet. Nothing you listed would be under 2 MOA for a good lot out of the best barrel in the world. You need to try something of known quality like Federal Gold Medal Match, or any of the Match quality ammunition from Winchester, Remington etc. Federal Gold Medal is the gold standard here!
-
Meh, if you can shoot an AR-15 sub MOA, you can shoot an AR-10! I would look to what you are feeding it and how it is built. Have Don shoot a group with it and see if in this case it isn't the arrow!
-
Im replacing it with a N.O.S. Benelli M1 carrier latch/shell cut off. Where did I get this Unicorn you ask? I baited it in with Rainbow Marshmallows and Hi C Tropical punch! Oh and a small cup of Omaleen 100.
-
The best stage ever for shotgun. A dual spinner! You need to spin both....but in OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS!!!! No, your not done yet!!!! You have to stop them both as well. No humongo shells allowed. Now not only do you have to know your timing and be accurate, you have to know how much pattern will be enough to stop it. As soon as they are stopped a pair of crossing birds are thrown 90 degrees to the shooter, one to the left one to the right, and then hit a C zone at 107 yards with a slug for the stop plate. This tests every facet of shotguning
-
Shouldn't have much vertical play. Check to see if your roll pin is broken, if it isn't and it doesn't do this again I'd chalk it up to a bad shell rim.

Geese are also birds as are Herrons BBs and T shot must be ok as well right?? I'm sure that there is a bird called an Emu that would be hunted with a single projectile so slugs HAVE to be ok! How about a punt gun loaded up with a couple of hands full of nuts and bolts, they used those for bird hunting. Last bird I shot was with a 308 so maybe its allowed since it shot a bird? .......and now you know why we can't have nice things!!!
