Hi JP - i've had my SL3 for two years and it's only now started to break fully under its own weight without needing to force it. I've put everything from, 21/9's to 36/4's on two extreme high bird days this last season. I also put 300 through it at a simulated game day and only felt a little stiff across the shoulders the next day. It's a lovely gun, and those who see it always comment on how good it looks. It was covid so going to Italy was out of the question, however, i found exactly what i was looking for: 30" multi choke, floral engraving, 9x7 top rib which makes the gun look good although i don't believe it makes me shoot any better and the wood for grade 4 is super. Yes it is heavy and that's my only criticism. I went to have it fitted at a renowned gun shop in Newmarket, there's just enough cast for the dealer to say i couldn't get much better. Is it my favourite gun? Probably not but it is the best looking. i'm sure there are those who will say 'you could get a better gun for that price', generally these are people who have never shot any of the guns they've listed...or ever will. It's each to there own!
That a lot of gun ! I’ve shoot one 3 or 4 times and it so smooth to shoot !
Great video John Paul
