    New Waders

    in Waterfowling

    Posted

    The boots are cracking on my 4 year old waders. It's time to get a new pair. I mostly hunt flooded fields and timber. Any recommendations. Cabellas appear to have a good product.

     

    THANKS

    SBE II Questions

    in Benelli

    Posted

    I have a LH 26 inch SBII. After reading the posts in this forum, I believe that the 26 inch is the best all around barrel length. I don't know about the re-threading...I would take it to a good gunsmith.

    I have had my SBE II now for close to 2 1/2 years. I have no complaints and have been very pleased with it. However, I shoot a LH gun and the only barrel length it comes in the Max 4 is 28".

     

    I would prefer to cut it down for a shorter barrel, but I wanted to know if this is possible to do and still get it re-threaded with Crio-Plus threads.

     

    What if I went with a different thread of say, a Beretta -- since I have a Beretta O/U.

     

    One last thing, is there really any advantage of using the Crio-Plus tubes that would make me not want to do this.

     

    Also if anyone knows of someone that can cut these barrels down and re-thread them, please let me know this too.

     

    Thanks for any help you can offer!!

I totally broke it down, barrel off, bolt out, trigger group out, stock off, recoil spring out, cleaned inside recoil spring tube, cleaned inside mag tube, took bolt apart. I use Birchwood Casey Gun Scrubber Synthetic Safe Cleaner, it works great. I reoiled it, put it back together and it works like new.

    Chokes for Break-In

    in Benelli

    Posted

    I did not receive a response. I did some break-in with the Turkeys loads with full choke. I did not seem to have any problems. One item I did find was... the supposed recoil system does not work on these type of loads. I had my new SBEII and my buddy had his new Super X2. We shot the same loads through both guns and experienced the same recoil on our black & blue shoulders...

    Chokes for Break-In

    I have purchased several boxes of Winchester Supreme 3.5 inch #6 Turkey loads. I have not purchased any aftermarket chokes. I am going to break-in my new LH SBEII 26-inch this weekend and will use these rounds. Is there any problem with using the Benelli's full choke with these rounds. I found that the shot is a copper-coated lead. Benelli's literature states the choke is not approved for steel. I was wondering about the copper-coated lead shot..

    Tucker,

     

    I loaded 3 inch shells and found that I could only get 2 in the magazine. As you have indicated, there is a choke installed.

     

    In Arkansas our season opens on November 19th... We normally shoot over decoys. Let me know how they perform... THANKS

    I just received my Camo 26 inch LH SBEII. In reading the manual - loading. The manual indicates that the magazine can hold 3 - 3-inch or 3- 2 3/4 inch rounds. With one in the chamber that is 4 rounds. For duck hunting, I normally use 3 inch rounds and we are limited to 3 rounds. ------ Is there a plug that can be installed to limit the number of rounds to 3? I know that I will be checked sometime this upcoming season. :confused:
