Hey everyone,

Looking to buy my first O/U for sporting clays, new to the sport. Looking at the Beretta 686 or possibly Browning Citori/Caesar Guerini (if the price is right).

I am in Southern Ontario. Where can I find the best prices on a new gun?

Thanks,

Mike
 
i wouldnt buy anything new unless I try them out on the club.
if you know the exact vent hight, trigger pull, montecarlo, semi, straightback, then order them online.
Have seen many people spend $5-6000 online bring it out to club and shoot worse then their $1000 dollar semi auto. I did purchase beretta sv10 prev sporting. it is light, thinner stock then most other rem, browning, and it does move quick for sporting and skeet shoot.
Caeser guerini's tend to have full montecarlo stock with like 1" vent ribs for trap.. have shot those and works fine but will still stick with my $1000 gun for trap since it fits me good.
wouldnt know what your experiences with sporting/ trap shooting but whatever fits you comfortable is million dollar gun for me.

Before i buy anything, usually goto trap club and ask all the members if i can slap it on my shoulder to see if it fits..
first i close my eyes, close action on O/U, slap on my shoulder, put my cheek on stock and open the eyes. if the barrel and sights line perfect without wiggle, then thats the keeper for me.
if you find something fits, ask the member if you can try it out.. most people will say yes if you are looking for something to purchase.

"Gundealer" in New Brunswick do have large collection of O/U shotguns use or new.
 
yup i collect Beretta's my self and never had anything bad with'em and i do put though flats and flats of shells a month. worked great on both target and game loads
 
The best thing is to try them to see what fits and feels good do not worry about the name on the barrel.Fit is the biggest concern you should have when buying a shotgun.Throw them up or shoulder them quickly and the right one will just fit the planets will aline. mine is a browning 525 sporting.
