I had the 870. Yes, you are right, the Remington models you mentioned are known to be problematic.

I have the exact opposite experience.
My Remington pump action used to jam often. I sold it and moved to semiautos; flawless shooting since then.

Which model Remington did you had ZORAVAR.....some models (870, 1100) are known for jamming, this is why many stick to Mossberg and Winchester pumps.

I loved my semi auto but I was hurting bad back then for a while so I had no choice but sell it....I still regret it.

Semi autos are good, I use to have one......however from my experience it seemed that with bird shots/target loads there wasn't enough gas pressure to cycle the action properly causing jam/missfeed.
It worked flawlessly when fired with higher load shells which pack more gun powder.

If you are chasing a deer then you must be using at least 00 Buck shots which are very powerful (btw, great for home defense).

Here is a comparission:

Buck shots




Compared to target loads/small bird shots like quails.



This photo shows the number of pellets in different shells however it doesn't show te amount of gun powder used in each one.....the amount of power increases as the pellet sizes increase...ad in case of a auto creating the needed gas pressure for the bolt to be forced back enough to reload.

Haykakan buy some target loads and cycle them through you smi auto shotgun....if no jams you got yourself real good auto.

Been using it for deer hunting so have not had that problem.

You called it.....you can get those in two size barrels (you looking at the short barrel) if you shop around....I bought this one over 15 years ago. I know the military still uses them and they are very good shotguns, however nothing comes close to the smooth pump action of the Winchester 1300.
