Winner of American Rifleman's 2011 Golden Bullseye Award for shotguns, the Remington Versa Max has a nearly unparalleled level of versatility.

The driving force behind the Versa Max, of course, is the VersaPort gas system, which features seven ports andtwo pistons designed to soften recoil and reduce maintenance by contracting the number of parts. The VersaPort system allows the Versa Max to reliably cycle 2 3/4-inch to 3 1/2-inchshells.

Featured here is the tactical version of the Versa Max, which features a picatinny rail, forward barrel-clamp side rails and an extended magazine.

Alongside the featured tactical configuration, the Versa Max is available in a standard black synthetic model, a Realtree AP HD Camo pattern and a Waterfowl pattern.

Review: Bushmaster V-Radicator

The business of dispatching unwanted critters requires a platform capable of a high degree of accuracy. Nuisance animals such as prairie dogs are both small and skittish in nature, meaning that they tend to keep their distance and scurry away upon the arrival of incoming fire.
