Since there are limitations with ANY weapon, I'd suggest (just a random, crazy old guy on the interwebz, so take it with a grain of salt. But I was a shooting sports competitor...) learn to reload like you see shooters do in the three gun matches.
Look up: Quad loading. Get 4 or more 12ga snap caps. Practice: taking cover, positioning the shotgun correctly to reload, grabbing the shells properly, and finally sliding them in in multiples of two. Practice: reloading once you've fired a salvo or hit a target, i.e. before you run out of rounds in the tube.
Using your weapon to it's highest potential, finding out what types of shells are better for this or that environment, range, pattern, etc. Especially if you can only get birdshot or low brass.
Find and order a good belt and (double or quad) shotshell holders so you can be efficient. The shotgun itself is only part of the weapon system, it consists of YOUR MIND, ammunition, and a way to carry the ammo with you.

This is how you maximize a pump gun's potential.
