thanks for the suggestions! I didnt realise that there were alternative versions of modern semi-automatic rifles in a .22 calibre.

What makes you suggest a coach gun over a pump-action shotgun. I would have thought that the extra ammunition is a bonus, although i have read that it is quicker to take the second shot with the second barrel. Are there other factors such as reliability, weight or accuracy that you are considering?

EDIT: Scratch that, semi automatic shotguns, according to our queen, can only have a 2-round capacity. So that would be a pretty pointless 870. :P Still interested in why you made that choice though, regardless of the fact that i am limited by this.
