I bought a ringneck soley to hunt quail in the briars, it probably will get shot less then 50times a year. It points well and I shoot it well. I do not like to hunt with o/u but also do not want to abuse my "nicer" sxs in some nasty briars we have here in Bama. (My hands and butt cheeks are ripped up from this past weekend!) Alot of folks on this board think everyone should carry a bespoke brit gun...well goody for them...The ringneck is not a 2k +plus gun but I think a hell of a deal for a nice looking small frame 28 ga for 800 bucks!!
