Nice looking gun, Bob. I recently bought a Beretta 687 SP lll in a 20 gauge that looks just like that and fits me like a glove. And an SP lll in a 12 gauge to go along with it to match. My buddy has a Browning 525 like that that is gorgeous. We both love ours. I keep telling him- Ford vs. Ferrari . 😃

Nice gun!
I shoot those really well - any Browning O/U, really.

I shoot Berettas well, regardless the model. They seem to stock them suitably for me. I may add length to the LOP, but everything else will be close to right. FAIRs are usually okay, too.
Some other Italian O/Us, not so much. Rizzinis, Guerinis, Zolis, all have insufficient drop for me. They all shoot high, which is unacceptable.
My guns have to shoot to the POI that I want them to, or they are no longer my guns.
May God bless America and those who defend her.

A friend of a friend pheasant hunts with one. It outweighs the 12 gauge version.
No thanks.
Best,
Ted

Hey Ted! I've got a 1987 (first year) "Hunter" 16 gauge. Kinda like shOOting a 16 gauge Superposed. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/dwfLp0I.png) Like the "Sporting", the Hunter is built on its own 16 gauge frame. At about 6 lbs 10 oz, the Hunter would be my choice if I was to take one of these two into the field. The 525 will be a perfect 16 gauge Skeet Gun. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

You ‘be shootin’ registered skeet with a 16, Bob?
Nice guns, hope you kill all the birdies. The 16 I posted about is a bit too close to 7 lbs for my taste. My 16 double (juxtaposed not Superposed) is 6lbs and an ounce or two.
Handy little guy.
Shoot ‘em in good health, Bob.
Best,
Ted
