even distribution of weight over the whole gun so that it feels effortless to use" is an intriguing comment by the Holt's man who handles best guns all day every day. His opinion sounds close to what Powell had written.
That perfectly describes the William Powell and Son that I picked up. I just got back from 3 hours in the pheasant field and the thought occurred to me that I never noticed I had a gun in my hands the whole time. I got it at the Southern . Picked it up as an afterthought, sandwiched between 2 other guns I was looking at. As soon as I picked it up ,it was wow. This feels like no more than 6 lbs. I spent the next 2 days comparing it's feel to Boss, Purdey, H& H, guns out of mv price range, and none felt as good. I went back repeatedly to compare. When I had a feeling of dread ,thinking it might be gone,I bought it. Apparently it felt better to me than everyone else.
