- I bought a Mossberg 5500MKII a while back. Did some trap shooting and had
- quite a jamming problem with cheap Federal dove loads - never had a problem
- with cheap Remington loads. While rabbit hunting this weekend, had lots of
- jamming problems (using Winchester ammo). It was damp but not real cold -
- in the 30s and 40s. That was enough for me. Cleaned the gun up and took it
- back to Kmart - they took it back - love that store.
-
- Last night bought a new Remington 11-87 Premier with the light contour 28"
- barrel and choke tubes - a very nice handling gun. Comes in a nice hardshell
- case. Gonna try it out on some pheasants this week. Hope I don't have any
- jamming problems.
