I also need you to help me. I have not had much opportunity to hunt ducks in several years. My shotguns are very old. I used my Model 12 Winchester 20 gauge for teal season and am using a Remington 1100 12 gauge 2-3/4" now.

The men that I hunt with use a Benelli and a Browning Maxus. They can make the longer pass shots which I cannot. Would either be a good option for me or better another brand?

maxus is the easiest to take down in clean - if you waterfowl a lot... this is key

That shot doesn't know if it's coming out of a Remington or a Benelli.

I would pattern your gun. If it's hitting where you're aiming, it ain't the gun. If it's not hitting where you're aiming, it's most likely fit. Most of the new semis come with shims that will help with that, so pick your poison.

I would go pick up some benellis and beretta and see which one you like. Personally, I like benelli.
