Grades relate to quality of wood furniture and engraving with grade 1 being at the bottom and 5 at the top - basically which ever grade you get, it will shoot the same, just comes down to what you want from engraving/wood and what is in your pocket.

I agree. In my opinion I prefer to pay for functionality rather than looks. There used to be a guy at my local clayshoot that had a gun cost £14k but he couldn't shoot very well so everyone used to think he was a t*sser, better to get an ok gun and spend the extra money on tuition or practice !

JonathanKent 16 Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 They are good guns, Miroku are owned by Browning and make all their shotguns (all but the b25 which are still made in belguim) you are basically buying a browning 525 only a little bit cheaper (grade for grade) I bought a 525 before the season last year and I like it more everytime I take it out the cabinet.
