here are again, ok, been looking around at a few nice semi-auto 12g, felt them all,russian,italian,etc etc, like the feel of the baretta 303 & winchester xtr1500, infact love that winchester,nice action & been proofed at 3" choke at london gunsmiths.a real piece of kit..some burk varnished the wood,i can restore that, ive checked the bore & it only .0002" wear..The million pound/dollar question..
are they any good ?? thanks guys.

    I would go with the Berreta mond,while Winchester are great guns they are going out of business if not gone out of business.Their arms are going to made in other countries now,so if something goes wrong you might not be able to buy parts for it.

    I have the browning gold, which is really the same thing, like it alot. really smooth, fast, and soft shooting. to flossy for me, but i got it cheap, which is like me!
