Note that the question is what's the shotgun you use the most, which might NOT be necessarily your favorite shotgun.

Re: Poll - Most Used Shotgun?
-12 GA Pump Action Shotgun
-12 GA Blaser F3 Game O/U Shotgun
Based solely on lifetime statistics, my most used shotguns are the two 12 gauges mentioned above.
However that answer is heavily dependent on time-of-ownership and allowable species.
If I were to look solely at this past year, then the 16 GA would be 1st, followed by the 12 GA Blaser F3.
I felt my answer needed a little bit of context.

Re: Poll - Most Used Shotgun?
Couldn't you pull this info directly from the game database? I've used the 12 GA pump action the most, but recently I haven't been using it at all, opting for the Blaser, side by side or Maestro instead.

For me the 10 GA and after the Blazer, mainly used geese and ducks, all 2 good sights and the 10 GA allows long shots (5-6m further ...) than the 12 GA

12 Gauge Semi-Auto Maisto
10 Gauge Lever Action Shotgun
Since the 12 gauge Maisto shotgun came out, it has been the replacement for the 12 gauge pump. It is great to have those 3 quick shots and then to follow up with the 10 Gauge for those 50 meter shots is my go to.

[When in doubt, use a bigger caliber.]

10GA / 12GAs (any)
10GA has best performance and reach for me, but ammo costs, whereas it is free for the 12GA.
Should you not have listed the Drilling as well?
And also, can you not pull these numbers from the database? Or do you want to hear our why's as well?

Re: Poll - Most Used Shotgun?
It definitely depends on what you have to hunt, for aquatic without the slightest doubt the 12 gauge pump action in different version (over 64,000 catches), for partridges, rabbits etc. the 12 gauge semiauto all the others just to score HS points or for personal preference but the two 12 mentioned cover all needs...
