Jmel I would guess about 2" in 100'. Although I figure that if you pay $1350 for a somewhat expensive shot gun (in my book) I would expect it to be perfect. It is just very noticable to me right when I took it out of the box. Mine is off to the right also by about a 1/32", I don't know you are probably right that it is not that critical. Thanks for your input Dave

I did call Benelli after I posted and they said for me get with my gun dealer and have him ship it back and they would either repair it of provide a new barrel. Thanks for your reply. Dave

I purchased a new SBEII and noticed that the center aiming bead on the barrel is not centered across the width or the raceway. It is about 1/32" off center. Is that a flaw or is that correct? Would appreciate any response. Thanks Dave
