The Seeker 3,048 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 Benelli is definately my choice (have heard good things about Winchesters maybe worth a look) Do yourself a favour to avoid disappointment DO NOT go down the Hatstand route. 1 Quote Link to post
charlie caller 3,654 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Benelli is definately my choice (have heard good things about Winchesters maybe worth a look) Do yourself a favour to avoid disappointment DO NOT go down the Hatstand route. Quite agree Benelli has to be your first choice mate, whatever you get just make sure you avoid the horrid Hatstand virus. Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Well, that seems a pretty overwhelming vote for Beretta, seeing as they own Benelli and Franchi! :yes: Quote Link to post
mole trapper 1,693 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Whats with all the phobic behaviour about escorts? I use one in my work and have no problems what so ever in the 4 years i have owned it, same as a ruger 10/22 clean it and it works, quite simple really. Quote Link to post
andyf 144 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 Hi: I have an old Beretta 303, 26" barrel, and it has been (and remains) my 'best buddy' shotgun, I also own several 'fancy' (i.e. Expensive) S/S & O&U guns which are also 'very good' but cost me unspeakable money. For decoying and Foxing the B303 is my first choice, it likes 32gr felt wad No5 shot (for birds) and 50gr BB or SSG for Fox. I live in a world were Semi-auto's are NOT WELCOME on bird shoots, but if I could use it I would! AF Quote Link to post
