well my in put into this on the clays side,i could never use a sbs as to the focus as i look down the barrel,but thats just me ,now i am a o/u man for clays, but to a auto i have it's well good enough for clays i have use it many a time and shot well with it. i know alot of lads that use them,why in my thinking people don't like them is that for reloading is slow, noisey,always a pro beside you that likes to hear a pin drop when shooting and for choke choice is limited,other than they a fine gun for clays
cheers sounder
