Wow that supprises me. Does the legacy fit her better than the 391?Originally posted by ericf:btw.. my 14 year old, 100 lb. daughter has since layed claim to my 20 ga. legacy. She preferred it to my teknys 20 ga. telling me that the recoil was lighter.

I'm willing to bet its the latch that keeps the shells in the chamber. That gets people many times.
-
Ditto, lets see the picture.

Yea, like robert said, start with the heavy nasty suckers and then you check it by shooting the light loads. I started my SBEII with about 20-30 3" and 3.5" magnums and then shoot about 300 rounds of 1oz. loads through it. I only had problems on the first few of the 1 oz. after that, been great.
-
Yes it does. I hunt in the salt marsh with a camo sbe. It does not rust where the camo finish is still there.
-
For the SBE its D, for the SBE2 its C (they give the same drop). I had to order my D shim from Brownells.
There was a post on here that gave the numbers of the drops.

Its a personal preference. Try to shooting each at a SC range and see which one feels better.

Irish,
thx for the reply. I've been told by a few guys to bring vaseline to put on your cheek to help the gun rubbing your face and to bring a PAST pad to help your shoulder. I'm not sure when I'm going, but I can't wait.

Irish:
Is he shooting 12 or 20? How big is he?
-
Thats the reason I was looking at the 391 Sporting 20, it weights almost a pound more than the monte or the normal 391 20 but still less than my 391 12 or my SBEs.
I've never been before and I'm not sure who to listen too about how the recoil will bother me. I'm younger that everyone I talked too and none of them work out or run or eat right, so who knows. I may be able to shoot my 12s and be fine, on the other side I would hate to get down there and be so sore after 1 day I couldn't shoot anymore.

Interesting.
Never shot an M1/M2, Sport II or SS or Monte. I'm still shopping for a 20 ga. for south america, although a 391 Sporting 20 is leading my desire. This Cordoba will be interesting to see.
-
Correct me if I am wrong, but there is no camo monte now and from what I understand the Monte and M1 are the same gun, but the monte is prettier and the M1 is field gun. Wouldn't a crio Monte be pretty much the same as a M2?Originally posted by mudhen:I am going to wait for the new Monte Crio in synthetic camo.

Any more info or picts on that mallard above?

Interesting. The Cordoba sounds like a field version of the SS or kinda like a M2.Originally posted by Nelli Girl:Here are some of the new products that I can tell you about:
Cordoba, which is a sporting clays/hunting gun crosstrainer. Same as the SuperSport but with black synthetic stock, matte finished metal and black matte extended choke tubes. Jim Carmichel of Outdoor Life had some input on this one after hunting with us down in Cordoba, Argentina with the SuperSport.
Newly styled Montefeltro with the Crio System (12-ga, 20-ga and Lefty12-ga)
I was wondering when we were gonna see a Crio in the Monte.
Thanks for the post Nelli girl, good read.

I wouldn't count on any new guns from Benelli this year. Last year by this time there were solid rumors about the SBE2 and M2, I haven't seen anything so far this year.

turkey:
I can answer that one, older folks and people who have had shoulder injuries just can't take the abuse that "kids" can.
-
Whats the recoil pad replacement kit? An Al plate that you mount a recoil pad too?
Have your compared x-coil to limsaver?
-
it shouldn't be tough for an adult, i'd take it back to the dealer and if all theirs are the same, take it to a gunsmith and have him clean it up.
-
All like that. My SBE rusted in front of me on its first hunt in the salt marsh last year, even having a coat of corrosion-x on it before the hunt. My Nova, circa '99 is much better. I had my SBE dipped and bought my SBEII camo just for that reason.
-
i'd sell it and buy a new one and avoid the hassle of trying to find a new barrel and stock.
-
one word, floating gun case.
-
I had that happen to me too, it was only with 2 oz. 3.5 inch loads that I don't really care to shoot any more. I did have it happen on one kent 3" 1-1/8, but I got to chalk that up to where we were hunting and the conditions of the camo blankets. both guns jammed that hunt, just too much crap kept getting in the actions.
-
threeshot :
Yes, I've done it on my SBEII.
payellowdog:
I know plenty of guys who have got over 10 years out of their H&K SBE with the stock spring. If you get a lot of crap and oil in your action, you shoudl check the spring and tube and clean it, but I bet the spring will last you a while.

Recoil??
in Benelli

yes it is, i've read that a gunsmith can do it in minutes.
