k80,

I have seen and used both and would definately say the Berretta is a better built gun.

A friend purchased a Berreta last year in 9.3 and it is superb.

Also, aren't the Winchester Grand European's old models - ie they don't make them
any more as opposed to the Berreta that can be purchased new ?

Generally, don't buy doubles on price - you really do get what you pay for !!!

Good luck.
