Weatherby SA-08

Anyone have any experince with this gun? I looked at one at Academy the other day, and I liked the way it fit and felt. Best fitting gun I have handled so far. My biggest concern is that it is made in Turkey. Seems like ALOT of guns anymore are though. I have done a search for it, and can't find much. Curious if anyone here may have some say so on it

Shot one at the local trap club. Seems like a nice gun. If Weatherby put their name on it as the importer, it can't be all that bad, as they will have to deal w/ the warranty issues. Besides, good fits on a shotgun don't come along everyday....Good luck, Eric

That's what I am thinking. I need to check the fit of my old Win 1400 and see how it fits. I want something that is gonna fit me like it. How was the recoil? It's ALOT lighter than my old sled, but it felt OH SO GOOD!!!

Shot it with trap loads only. Not much of a real test, but I can say that it hit where I pointed it...I would say it was on par with any other autoloader shooting trap loads. For me though, Remingtons just FIT, so that it what I stay with. Tried the 935 and absolutely loved it, it just didn't "fit" in late season clothing like my 1187 did, so I sadly traded it in, but after a few months with the new to me 1187, I don't regret it one bit, especially the last day of duck season where I had to wear the heavy clothing!
