    1-BRTF-TCT Optima field Crio .655

    2-BRTS-TCT Sporting Crio .655

    I do not understand what the difference is in the two and would appreciate any help than anyone could offer.

    Thanks in advance!!!

    Good Hunting

    Haven't tried the Terror but did try the Wad Wizzard, not impressed for a $100.00. went out on a limb and bought a Rhino and it pattern great, matter fact it patterned all five loads I tried good.

    I got real good patterns from a Terror .655. I sent my last SBE to Rhino chokes and had the barrel done special for turkeys, my SBE II with the terror throws a better patern than the old one did.

    BendDG what size shot are you shooting out of the Terror?
  3. recoil will not change much until you shoot the 3.5's and if recoil bothers you that much I would seek a 410ga. As for the other complaints I've not had the first. Let's not lose touch with reality everything that is mass produce in a short time frame will have defects, that's where good Customer Service plays a big role and from what I've read Benelli is taking care of business.

  4. Well it definitely shoots as good as it looks, very pleased. If you guys don't won't one of these guns I would advise, don't pick one up or you will have to anna up. Well balance and points great.

  5. Threeshot is correct Benelli recommends about 100 rounds of hunting loads through these guns, I've shot about 400rds of spicy reloads and only had 1 jam, that could have been the shell. Try some 3" stuff and make sure the recoil spring has been lubricated.

  6. If your bolt is not locked to battery you will not be able to load to the mag. Pay attention to the extractor and make sure it rotates upward when the bolts closes, this locks the bolt into firing postition. If it is at the bottom of the channel it's not locked in.

    I just recently purchased a SBE II and it is my first Benelli. I've been absolutely impressed with everything about the gun and the looks, and feel. But I have one major concern and I've contacted Benelli about this already but I'm not convinced this is truly the case so I'm going to ask you guys if you can help me out.

     

    Is it true that when there is a shell in the chamber of the gun and the bolt is closed, you are unable to load the magazine of the gun with more shells? I've had other guns, and talked to others about this and they all believe there maybe something wrong with my gun. Although when I called Benelli they said that this was customary with the Black Eagles! I have a hard time believing this as that is a very bad feature if this is the case. I've not heard anybody talk about this about the Black Eagles. I have even gone as far as taking it apart several times trying to figure out if there is something sticking, jamming or misaligned and I have not found anything.

     

    Please respond to this post and possible clarify this for me or help me out as I think this is a very bad feature as when I'm out duck, goose or pheasant hunting there is many times when I will need to add a single or two shells to the magazine and I don't want to open the bolt and eject the shell in the chamber to just add my additional shells.

     

    Any advice or clarification will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
