Thanks to all who responded to my request. Dean would win the prize, were one to be awarded, for the most helpful answer ... the gun is going back ... just too many problems.
This is my second run at acquiring a decent VH 20 for grouse and woodcock hunting and packing them up and sending them back is getting old fast! The first "returnee" was the same gun that Weston Croft sent back. And, although I asked all the right questions before having the gun shipped to me, the answers I was provided with, were all - to put it generously kind - incorrect. I'm certain that I'll find the gun I'm looking for but probably not at either of the dealers I've thus far dealt with.
And from an earlier post by Dean ... I couldn't agree more, the Spiller gun is a thing of beauty and a joy forever.
Bruce, I hope to see you again at the 2010 Flatwater.
