Rocketman, I believe the common use of the term Sporting Gun usually refers to the shooting of Sporting Clays, which is a game well suited to the SO4 Trap. I would think that even the Brits use the term "sporting gun" to describe a sporting clays gun and leave the "game gun" terminology for light hunting guns. I remember when the first H&H "Sporter" arrived at a retail establishment where I was employed. The concept of a major best maker marketing a gun in that price range was a new one at the time. It was obvious to me that the gun did not come out of Holland's shop. It was an attempt at a high grade medium weight sporting clays gun with rather heavy wood configuration, single trigger, and screw in chokes. Not only was it not a game gun by anyone's estimation, the trigger did not work well and it became a nightmare for its new owner. Who actually makes the H&H Sporter?
