Looking for a new, reasonably priced ($250-$350) pump action or semi-auto shotgun for skeet shooting, target shooting, and squirrel hunting. Please name the brand and model of any suggestions. Thanks! |

Check the used racks at your local gun shops. You can find a used mossberg 500 or remington 870 express magnum in the $200-300 at most shops that do trade ins. Also check the store ads for gander mtn, bass pro, and dick's sporting goods. Check out a few models, find what you want, and enjoy. | |

A lightly used Winchester 1200/1300/120 is an excellent shotgun. The 120 is the plain Jane version and very serviceable. They can be had at the low end pf your price range. __________________

It depends on where you live and what shop you're at. I know that at the local Gander Mountain you can expect to pay atleast $50-$200 more on something than at the local gunshop I work at. If I recall right I've seen Remingotn 870 Express Magnums for sale around $250 new. __________________
