Eastwood Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I'm looking to upgrade my shotgun. Shooting a Stevens 311 now. Can't afford an SKB or BSS. Long hunter shooting supply sells a Stoeger with action work for what seems to be a reasonable price. Does anyone have first hand experience with one that you can share with me? Or what is the best option available in that price range? $6-700 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 You might find a Charles Daly 500 in that price range, they were made by Miroku, the same folks that made SKB and BSS. Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Hombre Sin Nombre Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I have experience. I bought a Stoeger supreme with the nickel barrels. Beautiful and the work done was superb. Never once had a shell fail to shuck. I think it's probably the best bang for your buck in hammerless. I prefer the hammered doubles so I switched to a cimarron 1878 dove by Johnny meadows. Can't complain there either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DollarBillNewman Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I bought my stoeger coach gun and 45 Rugers from long hunter. Heidi and Jared have been great.All three guns had cowboy action jobs,smoooooth! Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StirrupTrouble Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 My Stoeger Supreme was purchased from them and they are top notch. Mine had a lockup issue about a year after buying it, and when talking the Jared there was a Stoeger quality issue affecting some of them from the era when I bought mine. I was just looking for advice, as it was in the middle of the season, and my state shoot was coming up in a week. He knew what to do and even though it had nothing to do with his work, he asked if he could fix it and assured me I would have it back in time for state. He emailed me a call tag and paid shipping both ways, would take no money for the repairs, and got it in my hands the day before I was due to leave for the state shoot. It has worked flawlessly ever since, and with the way they took good care of me, I would not hesitate to send anyone to them Awesome folks! You will not regret dealing with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster Ron Wayne Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Stoegers with single triggers seem to have issues . I bought two double triggered Stoegers about 9 years ago. Slicked one up and left one stock. Todate I have Never had to use the stock one yet. So I say the double trigger Stoegers are tough as heck !

Lead Friend, SASS #53635 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I bought a Stoeger Supreme Coach Gun from Heidi and Jared at Long Hunter Shooting Supply last Fall. Everything went flawlessly with the transaction and the gun works great. I have a '73 in transit back from them right now after action work and a Marlin ready to ship out when the '73 returns. They are kind and efficient and fair. I wholeheartedly recommend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lead Friend, SASS #53635 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 They never stopped to the best of my knowledge. Like others I'm sure they steer clear of Remlins but they've expressed no reservations about working on my JM Marlin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
