So many variables come into play I think someone with a high level of knowledge of building DR's / Shotguns etc would be good to answer.

At the end of the day, if a gun is built, passes proof and last's when used regularly, then it passes the test.

I would like someone like Alex Beer to give his views on the subject.

In regards to actions, I still think that the bigger the better, hence why I like the Greener.

Re the Greener, I did a quick look around the 'net, it seems prices have risen a fair bit even for low end Empire grades.
