You were into it deep then. Was your Rem. model 31 set up as a single shot only? Most Outlaw Mods. that were pumps are.

Those side bets can get pretty big at a shoot also.
mac, I haven't messed with much of the newer guns. Seems like they are all made tactic-cool for the mall ninjas now days.

I need to get myself a 1100 Remington action to put my match barrel in and find me some matches close by . Til I find the action I'll use my 870 which is a pretty fair match gun itself .

It seems to me that older Remington and Winchesters do most of the winning.

Those ol' boys that were regulars at the stock gun match would grin like a possum eatin saw briers when someone new walked in with their Mossberg 835 with an X-tra Super Full Turkey choke screwed into the end of it. You could see the $$$ signs in their eyes.

I also watched a girl clean house one night at a stock gun shoot with a Marlin model 55 Goose gun with a 42 inch barrel. I don't know what bothered those guys the most, losing their money or losing it to a girl.

POSSIBLY IF A YOUNGER CROWD WOULD START COMING TO MATCHES YOU MAY START TO SEE NEWER MODELS OF SHOTGUNS.

Yep, seen Win. model 50 and 59's shoot at the matches. They have floating chambers. The model 50 was a better match gun than the model 59 though. The model 59's pattern would fade fast when the barrel started warming up. Not much steel in those fiberglass barrels on the model 59's.

jtd, they will if the shotgun you shoot them from will handle them well. We were shooting them at a 26 yard match and they blowed holes that looked like the card was shot with a rifled slug. Just FYI, don't shoot them out of a barrel that has wad stoppers cut into it. The 2-2-10's don't have plastic wad cups, they just have the shot set on top of a cardboard plug.

You wanting suggestions for a stock shotgun or a modified one?
Stock shotguns to look for are, just about anything Winchester, models 1912/12, 1200, 1400, 37, 50, Super X model 1. Remington models 31, 11, early 870 & 1100's. Either of those brands I listed are with fixed full chokes. Factory screw in choke tubes seem to fade away after a shot or two.

Not every shotgun model I listed will shoot those 2-2-10 shells good, but they're out there that will shoot them good. I have 8-10 factory shotguns here that will shoot the 2-2-10's really well. You just have to try a shotgun to see if it will handle them good. Winchesters, on average, with fixed full choked 30 to 32 inch barrels will shoot 2-2-10's good. Some better than others.

Forgot to add, shotguns need a 2 3/4 inch chamber ONLY to shoot the 2-2-10's good. 3 inch chambers will shoot them but from all I've seen shot, not to good.
