There is a huge difference between a $600 and $1,000 shotgun...

There is an equally distinct difference between a $1,200 and $2,500 one

There is a subtle one between a $2,500 and $4,000 but

There is little difference between a $5,000 and an $8,000 one except cosmetics...I love my K80!
I'm rather new to sporting clays / skeet shooting. I generally know there's a quality difference between the guns in the ranges you've described. I did some resarch when I purchased my O/U, but basically relied on a good friend's advice in purchasing my O/U. However, I've never really had anyone lay out what the technical and mechanical differences are (not cosmetic) that distinguishes a $2,000 shotgun from say a $4,000 shotgun. Other than cosmetics and manufacture's reputation (and I know that cosmetics counts for a substantial amount), does anyone really know what seperates an under $2,000 O/U from a $4,000 O/U?
