Well actually speaking as a person who happens to own several Berettas 686's and others and also happens to own the current Weatherby Orion and has shot both of them a bit, the Weatherby is a fantastic deal for an o/u. Unless you are going to shoot the gun 10's of thousands of rounds a year I would go with the Orion and use the extra money for shells. The wood to metal fit on the Orion is better than both of my Berettas and is on par with my older Brownings. If you want to have an "engraved gun" you will need to go with something else. The Weatherby does have a shiny stock which depends on if that is what you like or not. Now keep in mind the Weatherby is only available in 12g.

The Weatherby is a Turkish made gun and they are turning out some very well made guns for the price point.


Here is a video I did on the Orion. (keep in mind I also own multiple Berettas, Brownings, Merkels, Winchesters and some Remington's thrown in... ) Basically saying that to show I own different brands that are more money and I am not pushing the orion because it is cheap and all I can afford. I like it because it is a quality gun... will it shoot 100k rounds... do not know because it will probably never be shot over 25k rounds.

The worst thing ever to happen to cops is the personal video recorder... Now people can see the truth
