BUHAG Suhl. 16 gauge modified choke over 8x57RS and some of the terrain here for which it is well suited. It came from Simpsons a few years back with a Hensoldt 6x in the claw mounts. I have had difficulty sighting it in for elevation, but it works well in thick cover with it's open sights. I use Remington #1 Buck or #6 Magnum over Sellier and Bellot 200grn. cutting edge bullets. The recoil pad was added at some point, and I found out after I had purchased the gun that it had been counter bored back for a good ways in the rifle barrel. It works well enough and is a joy to carry. Norman4
