Browning Medalist

[Shotgunner_01 0]

Just wondered what peoples opinion of this gun are whether it is any good for use as a clay and game gun, how reliable are they and do they suit someone of a smaller build. Any help greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

well bud i shot a Medalist for years very good gun , i used it on clays and game, very reliable i found, now the only thing i found wrong with it was when shooting alot of clays it was a jaw breaker, i moved to a beretta 682 gold e and it was like driving a tractor then sitting into a limo , but in saying that i would not fault the Medalist for that as it could of just being me and down to gun fit !!!! i gave my Medalist to me old man and he is still shooting away it we are both small build, it should come with 5 chokes, and i won alot of comp with with that gun,

Shot a Medalist on many occasions As Sounder implies above, gun fit is all important as on the whole they are a very good gun

 

The only thing with Browning/Miroku/Winchester, unless you thoroughly dry them after a soaking or even if you touch them with your fingers, the rust will come like wildfire.

I've been shooting the same Medalist for decades. On the plus side, it has always been very reliable and on the minus side, it's a bit heavy.
