Two weeks ago I finally received my new SBE II-LH. After close inspection and a good cleaning, I took it to the trap range. Out of the box, using Benelli's IM choke tube - without any practice shots - I shot for league score,... twice!! First round 22. Second 24. The only change I made to the gun was to replace the front sight. I changed out Benelli's and installed a High-Vis sight. After those scores, I decided I'll keep it!! Not bad for a new "out of the box" gun!!! Thanks Benelli.
P.S. No safety problems, ejector problems, scratches, etc. .....shooting Remmington 2.75" 3 Dram #8 shot. It worked just fine!! Now its time to try out and pattern the big loads though.
