B525 LIGHT Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Seriously considering returning to a over and under for fowling so have been looking at various options and now that Browning no longer make the 425 waterfowl and the cynergy isn't imported as standard I'm leaning towards the Fabarm. Has anyone any experience of one. Wondering how the tighter HP chokes are coping with larger steel shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamch Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Someone on here from Bishop Auckland was trying to sell a 3.5 cynergy a while ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B525 LIGHT Posted December 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 Ooh! Cheers will try and did it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misser Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 got the standard 3.5 inch fabarm multichoke 28 inch barrells o/u...not the camo one...personally i like it, steel shot proofed as to be expected, used mammoth and winchester 3.5 shells through it and its' good on the geese, the minor negative for me is the palm swell on the grip...would prefer it to be thinner as per a normal o/u....atb....misser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatsanmad Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Theres also the lincoln and bettinsolli wildfowling guns aswell heard good reviews about the bettinsolli though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 Have a good read before buying a Cynergy, they have wear issues with the way they are jointed. Any sand or grit you can get in them wildfowling will wear it even quicker. I've had two 3" chambered Cynergies in the past. The Lincoln wildfowler gets good reviews as does the Yildiz.

motty Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I have a 34" barrelled Bettinsoli xtrail wildfowler. I like it and I have killed several ducks and geese with it already this season. I think it is decent value for money. I bought full and extra full Brileys for steel shot in all sizes. They appear to pattern very well. I wasn't aware Yildiz made a 3 1/2" o/u. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used it on both duck and geese and it does the job it was made for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

figgy Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 Motty your correct Yildiz dont make a 31/2" over and under its a sxs with single trigger pistol grip stock and multichokes. Bit of a crossover gun between the usual straight double trigger SXS & Pistol grip single trigger Over & Under. The Lincoln Wildfowler is a decent gun a friend shoots the Revo K200 31/2" duck blind camo,short for me but he loves it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mat Posted January 9, 2017 Report Share Posted January 9, 2017 Has any one had a go with the RA Sport Wildfowler that is advertised on guntrader? A little more than the Bettinsoli and Lincoln but is it any better? Going to have to get a new 12 for fowling during the off season and have been getting on well with a 20 o/u for clays so considering one in 12 as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
