I' m partial to a ramped rib and some O/U don' t have that. Even some of the new Brownings don' t have one.

I' d look at the difference and see if it' s something you care about. Berettas don' t have one and for me there' s only two O/Us I look at.....the SKB and the Citori.

I can' t tell you the number of times I tried to save a couple hundred bucks and regretted it later.
