Hi
Well I went and looked at the Krieghoff and the Browning Ultra XTR Trap today. The krieghoff was an amazing gun for its years but it just did not sit well in my shoulder and the plam swell was non existant and having large hands it did not feel right. I tried to shoulder it so many times to get it to sit nice but nope would not fit. Picked up the Browning and it fitted like a glove first time, the lenghth of pull was 1.5 cm longer made all the difference, also it was a good bit heavier. After a sandwich and a bit of thinking I came away with the Browning. Its new and has a five year warranty plus being multi choked it does have flex that the Krieghoff did not, still a lovely gun though! Anyway the club meets on Friday so I will be having a pop with it, will be interesting to see how I shoot with it. I think it may be back to stage one then hopefully an improved score as I get the setup and get used to it.
