I had come across an ad for Kent shotgun shells that caught my eye. It's a 3 1/2" BB Fasteel shell that has a velocity of 1,625 fps, WOW!! I've been using Federal Ultra-Shok Heavy High Velocity BB with a velocity of 1,500 fps, and I wonder how the Kent ammo stakes up in terms of quality, and knock down power. Has anyone out there tried these shells? Are they any good, and how is the quality?

I know exactly what you mean. I replaced my M2000 in May with a SBE 2, and I've loved it since the first shoot. My friend bought the Stoeger a couple of weeks before me. He told me it was the same as the Benelli, so I took his word for it and bought the gun. Man was he wrong, the Stoeger is a great gun for the money, but the SBE 2 is awesome!!! The day I went to but the gun the store owner told me he would sell me the SBE 2 in Max 4 for another $800. At the time I thought for the same gun, why spend the extra money. Man was I wrong, and now I've spent $1,300 for the Benelli and another $500 for the Stoeger. It was an Expensive lesson. Anyone thinking of buying the Stoeger should save up the extra $800 and buy the SBE 2!!

I just bought a new SBE 2 28" barrel a couple of months ago, to replace my Stoeger M2000 26". I feel like I can swing the Stoeger 26" faster, and line up the site faster. I have a tough time lining up the mid site and the end site fast enough to get on the clay before they hit the ground. I might just need more practice, but at this point I like the 26" barrel better.
