While I am not a big 1100 fan, I can't think of a single thing that the Remington 1100 would not excel relative to the Winchester.
Are you getting your guns mixed up? Both Rem & Win made a model 11. The Rem 11 was built under Browning patents & is essentially a Browning. The Win 11 was made to try to get around Browning patents so they could build a successful autoloader. The W11 did not have a bolt handle. There was a knurled ring about the center of the barrel & the barrel & bolt assembly had to be "Pumped" back to eject any unfired shells, rather than unlocking the bolt & just pulling the bolt back.
My personal feelings always were that a sweet 16 had about as good a feel (& better than most) as any single barrel magazine gun I ever felt. The few times I shot one I could shoot them plenty good. That "Hump" did not bother me at all. I just never shot one enough I guess to get used to that Double Shuffle of the barrel flopping around like a Chicken with its head wrung off.
