[QUOTE="jstaylor62, post: 1264916, member: 6870"] I practice and hunt with a Beretta 686 Sporting Competition gun. I have several reasons: * For some reason, Beretta only offers their competition guns in a natural oil finish and not their field line. For me, dragging a lacquir finished gun through briars does not make much sense * I hunt with the same gun I practice skeet, clays and sporting clays with. My muscles are already trained to mount and swing that gun's weight and barrel length * Beretta competition guns do not have an auto-safety every time you close the barrel. So you are not embarrased by mounting and swinging on a flushing bird only to squeeze the trigger in futility... * I use the flexibility of having two different chokes in my gun during changing conditions. If birds seem to be holding, I use a more open choke in my top barrel and a more full choke on the bottom barrel for the follow up shot at another bird [/QUOTE]
