RAMMER BURT Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Hi fella,i had a BC miroku 7300 in the early eighties with 26ich barrel choked 1/4 and 1/4 it was designed mainly to be used for skeet but i used it for everything including game shooting excellent made gun and very light weight,but you need to check the stock for cracks by taking the but plate off to see if its been repaired Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cumbrian shooter Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Thanks for that mate, its a very nice gun grade 3 wood which i think equates to todays grade 5 i think. It got the tear drops on! I will definately look at the stock. Im using a 30" lanber at the moment but i find im not a fan of the longer barels, slows my swing and gets caught up in the nets when decoying ect.... Did you find longer targets a problem with the shorter barrels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you find longer targets a problem with the shorter barrels no not really, the only disadvantage was i found it a bit lively/ fast on crossing targets due to the gun being light so you just need to slow your swing down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cumbrian shooter Posted November 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Cheers mate good info. Its going to be for decoying mainly and the odd ruff shoot! Would you consider it to be suitable for these? I find my 30" a bit slower to get on a bird when decoying fast target specialy at shorter range, and as you probs know the pigeons come in like lightning at times!
