A dedicated target gun is not going to appeal to the classic SXS aficionado. Nor will it appeal to the hunter. It's a completely different animal and there is really no reason to compare. I will have a dedicated target gun (that fits) one of these days. It may not be aesthetically pleasing to some, but it will get the job done. It will have a slim BT forearm, 32" barrels (min.) .015 & 025 fixed chokes, a vent rib and a vertical style grip stock with a palm swell. I am cursed (or blessed) with large hands. Straight stocks with splinter forearms feel like gripping a broom handle. As for looks I don't think there is anything more svelte than a straight grip SL with splinter forearm and 30-32" tubes. MHO of course!
