Beretta calls them Silver and Gold Sables in the US - except that they're only a Gallery gun here. I was considering a Merkel, Chapuis, or Kreighoff but the Beretta was far more reasonable, and I'd rather not drag around all the time a really expensive rifle so it could get damaged while in transit, etc. I'll take that risk when going to Africa, but not flying down to Texas to shoot hogs, etc. I just want one that will fit well, shoot well to 100-150 yards, and stay on face after a thousand rounds (realistically won't shoot it even that much). Also, I shoot a 682 for trap, so I'm used to the gun (sort of). I just wanted to make sure it wasn't a disaster waiting to happen.

Per the Gallery (NYC) the 455 starts at $70K - a bit out of my range. I think the SS06 is more "reasonable" but I didn't ask.
