    I shoot lots of ducks with 2&3/4 inch shells.

    Welcome - All that I can add is that you would want to note the friction ring on the magazine tube - it is "invertable" to adapt between the "Low-Brass" and the "High-Brass" loads - it is the Browning-developed "shock absorber" on the Remington. Good luck with the shotgun - over the last 50 years lots of ducks were shot with this one as well.

    Hello "Cloc54stunna"[:)]

    The 11-48 in 28 gauge is my favorite shotgun, and I have a dozen or so in my safe --- shotgun that is ---- only 2 11-48's. You can get up to a one ounce load which is at the bottom end of the 20 gauge range.

    The 11-48 has a "browning" recoil operating system, so be sure to turn the friction ring to the proper setting for "heavy" loads. Don't take "hope" shots --- wait until the duck is 25 meters away and don't forget that it takes more "leed" than you think.

    Happy hunting[8D]
