Coming from shooting alot of clays with a 9lb caesar guerini invictus I really struggle during duck season with my a400 extreme because its so light but so far this year this bps has been a joy for everything from tall geese to rapid teal! Would love to find one in 12 bore and change the a400!
Your favourite shotgun...... ?

AYA No2 custom fitted. No I'm not loaded my local shop had an insurance write off that was only a year old. Re-stocked to fit me and barrel repaired. I love my sxs. However, I'm a very lucky boy and won the GWCT gun draw last year so will soon be the proud owner of an AYA Legend Deluxe so I guess I'll have to learn the swing a drainpipe

Horses for courses for me. I shoot competitive clays, and my go-to sporter is a 1997 Beretta 682 Gold (not the later, lighter E version!!) It just feels right, multichoke 31" barrels. It's showing its age, but I can't see a reason to change it.
Next is a 20 bore Beretta 687 Silver Pigeon. I bought it with a cash legacy when my Dad died in 1999, and between us we've shot a lot of game. It's a 28" fixed 1/4 and 1/2, and a joy to carry. The stock has been swapped after it was knocked off the back seat of my car by a passenger many years ago, but the gun will never be replaced.
For early season partridge I have a Yildiz side x side .410. Cost buttons, but is a fantastic little thing to shoot.
I've just joined a pheasant syndicate with some good tall birds, and so will be trying some heftier shells in the 20. I don't think I'll be under-gunned, but itwould might be a good excuse to treat myself to a 12g game gun.

That takes first prize in my book - what a lovely looking shotgun!

Just love the click clonk of the bolt such a cool thing

I've been looking for a 66 for some time now , they get snapped up fairly quickly around here though . They're greatly under rated shotguns ............ and I like anything with hammers . The Lee Enfield is just a cool gun , and getting very collectable ( hence pricey ) . There are more Ishapore manufactured guns available locally than British made . An interesting piece historically but , more importantly , a lot of fun to shoot .

The Tula was a revelation to me. Its one of those shotguns I could probably shoot well with my eyes shut!
I had a Lee Enfield 410 many years ago. It was good fun.

Im slowly climbing that ladder currently shooting an invictus V ascent at clays with the intent of a k80 supersport some day. Still have a beautiful little 325 grade 5 trap gun that will never be sold
