SBE2

69beers dont think that I have not thought of trying to get my dad to pattern it, but he has always been a big guy. He weighs over 220 lbs. but gets the weight form lifting weights. How is this bad?... he always has tolled be "boy don't be a sissy do it". But I'll try to tolk me into pattern' it for me. And thanks for the help all.

Thanks for the help all.

Well Russ I have never thought of that but It seems to me in my hands that the problem does not exist it seems to handle like a regular stocked gun. In fact down here in Mississippi I have heard of a fella using a Franchi 912 Steady Grip for duck hunting which requires quick gun handleing. I also have a friend who is a prostaffer for Knight and Hale who wants a Steady Grip for his SBE. I am just your average turkey hunter but when I held a Steady Grip on both a Benelli and a Franchi I to get one of then for my firsy real turkey gun... they do feel great in your hands!

What choke did you use texismedic 1?

Another question what loads do I need to use to break in my SBEII.

Dad just got me a SBE2 Steady Grip for Christmas that is going to be my first turkey gun, but I here turkey guns kick like mules and I am 15 and only weigh 115 lbs. But I am determined to pattern this gun right. I say pattern because shooting at a game animal seems to make a guns recoil nonexistent. But like I said am small. I have heard that the Limb Saver is good.Any help will be appreciated.

What are some of the best turkey loads and chokes.

Thanks tucker301 for the info. I look for some HEVI-SHOT.

I am finally a proud Benelli owner. My dad has bought me a SBEII SteadyGripfor Christmas, but it has not gotten here yet, and I was woundering what are some good turkey load? I have heard good and bad on Hi-Vi, like it has good range and power but can be a mess and can ruin barrels and chokes. Are Benelli barrles rated for steal and Hi-Vi? Finally are there cheaper "regular" turkey loads that can have the range of Hi-Vi turkey loads. Please help. [ 01-25-2006, 09:21 PM: Message edited by: SBE2 ]
