I told the young bloke one day many years ago if I ever fell onto a large wad of cash that he and I were going to the Perazzi factory to get custom made U/O shotties. If that wad of cash was big enough we could always stop off at Purdey on the way home for a pair of SxS's 8)

Yep, I enjoy my rifles but a "nice" shotgun is just a pleasure to look at, hold and shoot. 8)

Cheers,
Waldo

Yep you are right I must say that I have a distinct like for high grade Brownings and would go a pair of 12 and 20 ga

I have a nice grade 6 20ga but it a late model Japanese one.

don't get shotguns at all.

Andrew for 55s the dasher or the titan. Does the titan have more powder than the BR

And if you subscribe to the long neck theory, look at the BRdx

Class can't be brought or learnt, you are either born with it or you're not :)

A nice shotgun is a work of art a good rifle is more an engineering exercise.
