Another variable between the 3" and 3.5's shells is the pattern results.

From a SBE II and BPS I have always gotten better pattern with the 3" shells. This is with factory, BrileyX2 (LM, MOD), and...

I sold the SBE II I owned. I tried the factory, Briley and Terror chokes tubes, but the patterns I was getting with large shot were still very poor. I never did really like that shotgun.
I purchased...

I saw the same thing happen on a Gold this weekend. The quality which marked the A-5 and Superposed are long gone.
Now we get offered overpriced alloy cookie cutter shotguns from gun companies....

When you do buy.........
Save a few hundred and buy the M2. You will be happy. I wasted money on the Cordoba and posted about it here. The ports may look "cool" but they do not reduce recoil, they...

The tried and proven goose calls have already been used this year. I do have a new RNT Daisy Cutter and a Feathered Frequency that are just waiting for opening day.

With steel shot, I hope your not serious.

I have the same shotgun's, with the same barrel length as you. I used my SBE II's all last season on hunts here, to Alberta and two OOS hunts. This year to Alberta, and early goose season. I have...

If your looking for online advice you might want to also check out sites such as Flocknockers , duckhunter.net and Waterfowler.com. All three have Pro trainer's and vets as well as active FT/HT...

threeshot,
It's not just the older ones. I have 2 M-37 Classic's( both made three years ago) that rival, if not surpass my M12.

I had not heard that about the swivels caps. But I have been away from the internet for awhile. Thanks for the link.
I used my 2 SBE II's last season, and this spring for Turkey. Swivel caps still...

What;s wrong the the end cap swivel? Hush Swivels work wonderful on mine. I do agree about the chokes. Flush mount chokes, should be outlawed.

I love semi-auto's and SxS's. They are great for geese, ducks, Quail and Turkeys. But when it comes to defending my family, a Wilson Combat made over 870 sits beside the bed.

I'm sad to hear this. Ithaca is as American as ***** Pie. I own several M-37's
The shotguns they have been turning out in the last few years have been on the other side of the world from cheap....

Very nice looking. ;)

The Cordoba is billed as a clays/hunting hybrid.
It's loud and proud. Hearing protection should be used 100% of time as Scott Vix stated, no matter what you are shooting. More so with the dadjim...

Either the .675 Terror or the .655 Terror.
I your a duck/goose hunter I would suggest the .675 because it can do double duty. The .655 to me is one dimensional.
With the .675 and Federals new 12ga...

The SBE II is a great shotgun. I mainly shoot 3" loads(steel, Kent TM) for hunting but went with the SBE II because of fit and the way it breaks down.
The barrel and top receiever are one...

Hush Swivels work great.

I had no luck with the Crio chokes/patterns and turkey loads either. The Terror .655 fixed that. The Terror .675 is pure terror on geese.
With steel and Kent TM, the Crio chokes patterned pretty...

Are you serious?!?!?

My 391 sporting is a bloody puff cake to shoot, no recoil, very fast action. I'm not very recoil sensative, but my II does kick more than my 1 (has an x-coil on it).

I...

Drundel,
I regret to say... I did not tell the whole truth above. I actually have four children. 2 BLF's, 1 YLF, and 1 CLF. The Yellow and chocolate are my wifes. These four are very needy are...

Scott,
To answer your question. Mudhen did an excellent job in answering, and nailed alot of the points. I'll just add a few.
I make a good living, as does my wife. We have no children. As long as...

You can also use a Browning X-Cellerator sling. It is nice, and comes with Hush Swivels.

Forgot to add.
The X-Cellerator is the camo model from the duck commander series. I bought it only...

DUKFVR,
They are the same. Except the the Cordoba has the black receiever and the stock has white non shiney(sp) spots in it. Really kind of cool looking.


Drundel,
My SBE II will cycle 1oz...

I think the SBE II recoils like a gas tube, in that it doesnt kick. But.... Perceived recoil is different for everyone. If the recoil is that great to you, you might think about going to a 391, or...
