So now that I've successfully got my wife into shooting, she is insisting on having her own gun. She wants a 12g in a 28" barrel.

On my list of reasonable priced guns:

Beretta A300, franchi affinity, and steoger, with the franchi "feeling the best"

Any OBers have these guns? How do they do at the skeet range with 2.75in target loads?

I don't own any of those but I would definitely advise sticking with an autoloader to keep felt recoil down.

franchi affinity


I bought mine the 20ga Affinity Compact. It's an awesome little gun. I wouldn't recommend teaching someone to shoot with an auto though.

The gf was pretty beat after shooting a round of clays out of my SBE. I'll be buying her a 20ga.

Just a thought.

My stoeger does pretty good at the target range. I can't speak for the rest. I shot a 14 and a 15 last weekend out of the 7 rounds we shot.
