SgtCathy, I think it has something to do with Brownings back bored system, my invector plus full choke tube measures exactly like my Benelli mod. tube and the invector mod. tube measures the same a Benelli skeet 1 tube. Don't know really how it all works, but % wise the pellet count is about the same. If anyone out there can explain, I'd love to listen.

Cool picture

Mudhen, seems an apology is in order. I did misunderstand your humor and sarcasm.
Regards,

Last I can recall Mo. was a red state?
At least I was. I am very thankful for what I have and where I'm at!! If you ever get to the mid-west I'd like nothing more than to have a beer with you.
You seem like an interesting fellow, myself I have no desire to visit Cal. Been close hunting in Colorado.
Regards,
John

Mudhen, what the **** kinda comment was that? After reading all of your post here, I thought you had some common sense, maybe I was wrong? You totally missed what I was saying!! This seems to be the typical type of response this site has to offer, I thought maybe I could learn something here, maybe not.
Good day sir,
John
P.S. Don't know why I got so worked up over someone from the far left coast.

Interesting to see people this passionate about there hobbies, in other parts of the world people are worried about Big brother coming in and doing whatever, whenever! and feeding the people they care most about, and we have time for this.It's kinda cool living in America isn't it? God bless America!!!

Funny all the talk here lately about stock shims, I read a really good article in June 2006 Shooting times in the firing line dept. Testing the different shims for the SBEll and it showed about 20" difference in the center of pattern at 40yrds between the 50 and 65mm shims. Sounds to me if you just have a high, low problem it would be time well spent.

Greetings from another Mo. turkey hunter, just north of Troy in kinda north central Mo. They were hot and bothered to say the least. LOTS OF RAIN!!
Henned up but workable. Knocked down a 20# jake about 10:30 Sun. after 3 hard morns. I'll try to get a picture on after I get it off my buddies camera. If you couldn't get em' off the roost, it was a long wait, good luck guy's I'm going to do the family thing this weekend.

Simp, I appreciate you taking the time to reply. Hope this gives other forum readers a better outlook on what goes on in the rest of the world, even with our neighbors to the north.

Hey, Simp. Define registering? In the states here, it's a simple background check for long guns usually, and and a more detailed background check for handguns. There may or may not be a waiting period, depending on where you live. I'm sure we are stored in massive data base of sorts, just in case the powers that be feel the need to flex their muscles. If there is a God in heaven, our 2nd amendment rights as Americans will hold strong. Best of luck!

Well this noob answered kinda like you did because there was recent response, noob?

Dang, Brother how much Buckshot do you shoot a year? Round here we use it for roaming dogs and local Hoosiers, I thought 2.65 a box for 00- 3" was a pretty good deal?

modifed!

Had 11 pellets in the head and neck at 36 paces 2 years ago with 2ozs. of 4's and a full choke, not xtra full 3" load in a BPS if that helps.

Wow? Don't give the show me state folks a bad name. 2.00?

If you do get one, Take it home and clean it really well, install an aftermarket recoil pad on it, stretch the mainspring so it closes all the way, file down the flat washer under the barrel so the firing pin actually reaches primer. Don't bother trying to contact customer service, after about 1hr on hold and 2 e-mails with no response DURING THE OFF SEASON!! On a postive note it patterns better than any of the other shotguns I own, Brownings, Remingtons, Winchesters. I ran right at 12 boxes of shells through it and I finally trust it enough to take it out of town on dove or duck hunt without a back up gun. I figured with the cust service I got I was going to break it or make it work under their LIBERAL 1 year warranty. Don't trust their 3 or 4 box break in period. I know there are alot of happy 2000 owners out there. I just thought I would share with you. If it breaks after the first year that was a lession learned, don't be cheap! At any rate nothing else it ought to make a great tomatoe stake.

Hey, Mo Fowler. I'm just south of you here in Union, I shoot alot of those 1oz. win loads. Dicks in west co. at 270 & Manchester always has plenty on hand for 6.99 a box. I can tell you a mod. choke and about a 6-8' lead, will knock the tar out of Teal out to about 40 yards. I guess because they are light and fast? Don't really know how they
work, But they do. Good Shooting!John
P.S. I assume your talking about the cheap Xpert steel shot loads

Just being curious. What do you use a firearm like that for?
243 vs. 270
in Benelli

To put in my two cents, I've taken 27 deer with a .270 and watched all but 1 fall. Leads me to believe it is very effective, yes I know Jack O'connor would be proud. Yes it does kick, last year during our does only season I took a couple of does with Rem's new managed recoil loads. One was just shy of 150 yrds. Ballistically on par with a 300 Savage and the recoil of a 30-30, they do shoot about 2" lower at a 100 yards than reg 130 grain factory loads, but still in line. At least in my Rem. pump. This may be an option. If you do have him use full trottle loads cover his ears and layer him real good, so he doesn't get beat up too badly. When he's shooting at a deer he won't know the difference in recoil from a .22 or a .375 H&H. Hope this helps. I know about recoil woes this is deer only deer rifle I've ever used or needed for the past 25yrs now and it does quite well on Colorado's elk also.
