hi Gerard

I also have a very long gun like Abri a 150cm Rob allen but like he said for everyday fish its no good. And to be completely honest with you on the last 5 trips out to the reef I have left it at home and used my Ra 110 with a single band. A 140cm - 150cm gun is hopeless to swing and track and this is the main reason I dont like long guns. With 2 16mm my Ra has lots of recoil its actually sprained my wrist once when I wasnt holding it properly. This gun is far less accurate then my dads 1.3 single band. Maybe if you are shooting from a long range ALL the time it would be okay. But I rather having my little pistol sized 110 its more challenging to stalk fish.

cheers
