It could work well in Argentina, I guess, for someone who makes his mind up ahead that he is only going to go through a certain number of shells per shoot, and sticks with it. Until you mount a shotgun 1000 plus times in a day you can't understand how tiring it can be. It was not an issue for me the two times I've been, but some of my buds complained of it. The 687 SPII Sporting I carried weighs 6lbs. 4 oz. I think 7 lbs. 12 oz.might be enough heavier to make a difference in the lifting department.
My MX8 weighs 9 lbs. 3, and handles beautifully, but I wouldn't want to mount it 1000 times.
