FinFerNan Posted December 21, 2009 Report Share Posted December 21, 2009 At £400 for mostly clays, of those listed I'd go with the Lanber or possibly Miruko. Ideally a multi choke sporter though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbly Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 If it were my choice again I 'd go with the Miruk...........Gert had one ..20 year old MK6000 awsome piece of kit. Will out live anybody.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 SKB-on par with Berreta for quality but most people will never know it-because of this second hand prices are lower than they should be and a bargain is more likely.Never liked Lanber's since mine fell to bits after less than 2 years.

robbsy Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 The lanber would get my vote, put thousands of cartridges through it and never a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris o Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 i would op for a lamber i have one and it is a game gun with fixed chokes at quarter and half and i use it on clays and i am well impressed with it and it comes up to the shoulder really nice. a few people i have shot with have had a go and were made up with how smooth the action is. but at the end of the day get what suits you the best. what might be good for you may not be good for some one else and vice verser. if i were you take some one who has shot for years and has experience with guns and good gun knoledge and find a few guns you like and see how they feel to you and get a friend or family and ask them how it looks in your shoulder. just make sure you feel comfortable with the gun you choose. i have been through at least 9 guns till i found the one that suits me best. hope this helps at all. but defonatly take an experienced gun with you before you buy.

Vectra26 Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 I bought an as new Baikal O/U for £300. I shoot clays with it as well as the lads with £2/3k Berettas. The action is tight and being relatively inexpensive, it's not the end of the world if it gets knocked about when out hunting. Well worth consideration.
