  1. Thanks lads , ive had the old one out and gave it a little extra bend and its a bit better but still not 100% it was easy enough to take out and fit again , thanks for tip about feeler gage il give it ago 👍

  2. I've got a reply from an email I sent to briley a while ago and they said there I/m X2 extended choke can be used with any sized steel shot and ive fired hundreds of 5mm and Bbb through it with no ill effects .

    I've tried them all and found briley I/m (or a briley exr) to be the best for all sizes of shot but if you tend to use 4mm and smaller Id go tighter again

  3. A great days sport and pest control good on yous thumbs. give the fiocchi 32 g steel 4s a try as well if you haven't already , there a little cheaper than the super steel and IMO probably a bit better

  4. The only time my versamax put holes in the case was when I was using some home loads that were a little " hot" never had a issue with factory shells , was yours with homeloads ?

    Yes mate they were home loads but nothing I'd call hot though ,I really liked the gun but like most new semi autos i just don't think there built to last ,I fire the same 3" home loads in my browning bps ,xtrema ,remi 1100 and Winchester 101 waterfowl and they've never missed a beat

  5. A lot of the new autos seem to have problems and I've had most of them ,if it needs to be 3 1\2 " look for an old xtrema 1 or 2 ,I had a versa max and shot very well with it but after a fair bit of use the bolt link broke it also had a habit of putting 2 holes through the case were the ports are so not good for re using emptys .if 3" any of the Berretta 300 series 301 ,302,303 and 391 or 3" remi 1100
