    Well I'm 6ft 3inchs and I love it.
    I used to shoot a Miroku and it's like driving a WRC car compared to a Toyota Landcruiser.
    There is nothing wrong with the Miroku but this is a mile better.
    They are very quick and I have added some barrel weights to slow it down and to add abit to the overall weight .
    I have just ordered some Muller chokes for it and because they are so light I may have to add abit more weight to get it back to where it is now with the Briley's.
    Your welcome to bust a few clays with it if your over this way.

    Why the change in chokes mate? I have the same gun. It busts long birds if I do my bit. I had a 5/5 mk10 and loved it. I seemed to put better scores in with it as well but my F3 was fitted wrong I reckon. Way too long.

    Those mullers get a good write up for sure, shot my Mk10 pretty well too when I had it heavy as a krieghoff and a half.
    Thanks for the offer, am often over your way at 33000 feet on my way west side for work, maybe one day aye.

    I'm a sucker for advertising
    Some very good shooters are using them or at least trying them , so I thought I'd have a go.
    They have a few features that make them different from the rest.

    Nice wood!
    I agree about the fitting, very dubious about getting fitted in NZ, just cause a guy has a try gun doesn't mean that he knows what the hell he is doing with it..............

    Pattern testing on the board doesn't always give you a true indication either.Mounting and firing at a stationary object 5 ft above the ground can decieve you into thinking all is well.I'm far from an expert but I have found I need my pattern hitting slightly lower on the pattern board than I would like ,to achieve results in real life shooting at a moving target in the air.

    Got enough cash tied up in the F3 so Ill stick with the briley's. I have left the half and 3/4 in for almost every shoot. As long as a choke is fitted concentricly its the ammo that is most important IMO
