theshootist Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 An interesting article on the Browning Gold which mentions the problems that occurred with the early 3.5" guns. Problems from which the gun's reputation never recovered in the US. http://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/gun-nuts/2013/10/underappreciated-browning-gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepasty Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 My go to gun is a Remmy 1100 with 26" barrel and fixed skeet choke, its older than me, no bluing left, big corrosion patches on the receiver and varnish coming off the stock.... I do all my shotgun shooting with it, fits like a glove, cycles anything, never jams. Love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malik Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 snap got the same ,but 30" barrel used 4 boxes of 36 gram rc to run her in .seems fine ,but would not recycle 21 gram comp x carts last week,not to botherd though did not purchase it for shooting 21gram carts they were all they had at the clay ground. good gun thuough got the a300 outlander aswell. Its an excellent gun as i am sure you are aware of, i just wish i bought it sooner! Thanks for the advice on running it in the minimum i ever shoot is 28gram so i am hoping there shall never be a cycling problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cawdor118 Posted January 6, 2014 Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 Its an excellent gun as i am sure you are aware of, i just wish i bought it sooner! Thanks for the advice on running it in the minimum i ever shoot is 28gram so i am hoping there shall never be a cycling problem. The unico part states it's for 24gram upwards. It was never designed to cycle 21gram cartridges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably best to give it a light spray and a wipe down but not go heavy on lubing it Video from beretta, 1:55 he says about the oilling of the gun.

88b Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Surprised lots of Beretta 300's but not 301's. I've had a 301 from new about 33 years now, I don't use it much now but I'll never sell it. Been thinking about a new auto can't decide between an A400 Beretta or a Benelli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
