Autoloader is king for waterfowl and dove. Yeah there are some great pump shotgun shooters with natural talent that can outshoot lots of people no matter what and every firearm I own can probably shoot better than I can. Cumbersome, yes. Try laying prone and firing or firing from cover while playing that trombone. Try the same thing with an autoloader. Sure a pump is comparable to heft with a double but an auto is much lighter unless you are talking about something ancient like an Auto 5 or an 1100. Second shots at waterfowl with a pump? Skybusting is what that's called because by the time you get that second shell chambered those birds are well out of the effective range of non lead shot 90% of the time. Pumps guns are used by a lot of people due to the fact they are cheap. Just like the .22 is one of the most often used calibers for shooting victims. Economics.
