BPW in trussville had several 2 weeks ago. Bottomland and obsession. They were priced a little higher than I’ve seen them online. But they sold me one for like $210 out the door. I haven’t had a chance to get shoot it yet.
Turkeymaster what red dot did you put on yours? What don't you like about the red dot?
some cheap one thats been working really well, just sits up high and i hate the idea of having a sight on my gun. I crawl and hunt in really thick places and dont want it to move. just like having a bead or fixed sight.
Also, the only turkey i killed with it this year io had to quick shoot him and he was so close i feel like i was lucky to be able to get the red dot on him
Shot it yesterday. Man, when you're used to shooting 12ga with 3" shells, this feels like a toy. It felt absolutely fabulous! Pattered good at 30 yards with that extended choke tube with the Fiocchi shells and kicked just a hair more than a .22 rifle. It takes some getting used to on how the safety works with the hammer but other than that, it was awesome. I love this gun and weighs about half what my Win. 1300 does. I'm gonna do a little different sights, prob something like turkey master did and let the wife use this when she goes. I'm a fan!

Agreed on the safety. I think I’m gonna put a set of truglo sights on it and use it as an all around gun until turkey season. I’ve had a blast with the little thing. Report is also minimal. My ears ring at the slightest gunfire. 22 LR will do it out of short barrels. I shot this thing all day and nothing. Only thing I would change is I wish it came with better sights on the included 45 Colt barrel
I dont see how Jebs or anybody else for that matter could improve a whole lot on the factory choke. I was shocked when I shot mine how well it patterned straight out of the box

Yours come with that extended choke tube? Mine is marked “EF” so it’s an extra full but no markings as to who made it or what constriction.

Yep, I think all the 301T models come with that extended tube. It shoots tight too. If I were setting up a youth gun I may even look to open the pattern up some
There’s the 40 yard pattern out of mine with 9.5s. I don’t think it’s too tight, I’m trying to go a hair tighter actually. These little guns are weird. One shot is tight, next shot is more open. I learned my gun is a lot more picky than any 12 or 20 I own.
