Input on Baikal guns?
I went to Gander Mtn. today and saw a 20ga O/U, Baikal Spartan. I have never heard of this company and want some input. The gun was $399, and on the bottom it said "Spartan gunworks by Remington; made in Russia" Anyone know if these are decent guns? Im just dying to have a 20ga for wing/clay shooting. The gun seemed to fit me pretty well too. thanks.

I have a nice little 410 sxs. May not be the prettiest and fanciest gun in the stores but has always gone BANG when I pulled the trigger...;)

Decent guns for hunting, but they won't hold up with extended shooting like more expensive shotguns. I've personally seen a couple of the Baikal guns die on the skeet and trap range.

RE: Input on Baikal guns?
I've put about 2000 rounds through my SPR 310 (over/under) over the past two years and it's just starting to feel "broken in".
My wife's SPR 453 is a great, inexpensive semi-auto. |

A buddy of mine has a 12 ga under/over, real nice shotgun. Handles well and I've never heard any complaints while out in the field.

They are nice guns. I have a 12 gauge SXS and I have used it to shoot sporting clays. The local pro at the club looked at it and shot it a couple times and said it was fine for what I wanted it for. He did tell me to take it to a local gunsmith and have the forcing cones bored he said it will make it shoot more consistent patterns and take away some of the kick. From what I've seen of them both shooting mine and my buddies O/U they seem to be agood gun for the money.

RE: Input on Baikal guns?
Buddy of mine sold a Berreta O/U and bought a Baikal, said he liked the feel better. It was a double trigger and he had the triggers reversed, outside of that, he has done nothing to it. He uses it strictly for pheasant hunting, and that was part of the problem with the berreta, he hated taking it out in the field.I shot his a couple times and it was OK, but won't replace my 101. Fit, and feel are about the most important attributes of a shotgun, mechanical stuff can be fixed.
