Any 20ga pardner pump patterns?

[bhanks55]

I did a search and couldnt find any. I just picked a really good condition used one up cheap. Darn thing is already drilled and tapped. Was hoping to see patterns others were getting for a starting point. Looks to take mossberg/win chokes. That is good because my wife already has a mossy 500 20ga and some extra chokes.

i'm in the process of buying one of them, walmart has them NIB for 159.99, i've never had a 20 before but at that price i couldnt pass it up, prolly gonna shoot hevi 13 7's or mag blends if i cant get the 7's, dont know which choke yet

Dang. That is cheap for a new one. My wife's mossy which has the same chokes likes the hevi 7 and .570 constriction. So that would be a good place to start for you too. It uses the same chokes too. Wish it would take a SSX or a jellyhead but no go as they dont make in that choke system. The second best I had without handloads is HW #7 with a factory Xfull flush choke.
I guess I will load up some TSS #9 to see if this bad boy will sting. Bet that will do the trick.

It's been awhile but one of those caught my eye at a gun shop because of the cheap price, and I quickly put it down.  Stamped right on the side was MADE IN CHINA.  Bad enough that so much China junk is imported but now firearms!!  I'll never own one.  If everyone starts buying them because of the price soon all the manufacturers will be manufacturing in China so they can compete.

It was a used gun so all the money for this transaction stayed here in the good ole USA. Just like garage sales. Bout the only thing that all the money stays here nowadays. I got a whole closet full of remmys and mossys if it makes you feel better woodchip.

the gun is made in china but it is made in a factory that is owned by remington

I've heard of FTE problems and really rough chambers as well as having to polish several internal parts.


To each their own though, it's tempting for the price.

i own 3 pardner pumps and have never had a problem with any of them and i have but over 4k rounds through the 3 of them combined, they are built like a ton of bricks, the only i have had a round fail to eject was my fault do to short shucking. the chamber and bore in mine is just as clean ans shiny and maybe better than my 870's, when i first bought one i didn't have the money to buy a new 870 so i got a pardner pump and when i got my gun funds up i purchased more pardner pumps.

listen to people who have actually used one and not those who have heard rumors or only looked at one across the gun counter

I couldn't care less how they perform.  I'll never own one.
