BerettaSV10 Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 Sporting SP has A tapered rib from 10 mm to I think 6 mm Optima chokes Standard sporting white bead Heavier than the game version The safety is manual safety Stock feels thicker than the game version Game SP has Narrow rib Can't remember what chokes, but not Optima ones Top mounting bead Sling monuting kit in the case but stock not drilled for the sling stud Safety is auto safety The guns feel slightly different in their handing, yet they both feel very nice its a hard choice to make as which one to get. I have not yet shot the game version as trying out the sporter. If using it for both rough and sporting think I would be tempted to get the game version, as you can always use 21G cartridges for sporting clays if you feel any recoil using heavy cartridges. If using the game version for clays you just need to remember to turn tnhe safety off enry time you shoot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted April 12, 2011 Report Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) I get on better with a Game gun for Sporting than I do a Sporting for Game, so GAME (Field)..UNLESS you intend HEAVY Sporting and just a bit of game! Personal choice of course, others will no doubt have a different opinion. :good: Edited April 12, 2011 by Dekers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spara Dritto Posted April 13, 2011 Report Share Posted April 13, 2011 (edited) I agree Dekers, I often shoot 400 Hull comp x 28g a week, 200 each day in no more then a Skeet vest and shirt with no problems through my Beretta Silver Pigeon one 28" field gun. I choose this gun as it's fairly heavy for a game gun, mine weighing 7.9 lbs so it works beautifully for clay, game and pigeon shooting...

Thunderbird Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 I bought the Sporter because it felt and fitted better for me (and I do sporting clays), and would agree that you have to weigh up what you will be predominately using it for. If you do a lot of rough shooting then get the field version. I also use the Hull 28s but to be fair they feel like being kissed by a lamb compared to e.g. Hull Profobre in a lighter gun. Try 400 Hull Profbre 28s a week and see how your arm feels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
