I have owned an SP10 for 10 years or so and thought it was great. However, I saw a Browning Gold 10 Lightweight version in 24 inch last week that felt 2 pounds lighter than my SP10 due to the way it balanced. I hear they cost about twice what a SP10 goes for though. If I had handled the Browning at the time I bought the Remington I probably would be carrying a Browning instead.
