  1. My nova and super nova are a little clanky. I don't know why it is but it doesn't hurt the performace of the gun. I've ben turkey hunting for years with my nova's and I've never had a problem with noise. Your nova's action will get smoother over time. I have 2 novas and 1 supernova and they serve my just fine.

  2. Nova, Nova, Nova. Nova's are the best for the money. I have a 28 12gauge nova(for geese and duck) , a 20 26 inch 20 gauge(for upland and dove) nova and a camo 24 inch 12 gauge super nova for turkey. I love em and I will never buy anything else. The only I like and don't like at the same time is the weight. 12 gauge novas can weight 8 or more pounds which is why I have a 20 gauge now. But for turkey and geese they are alot better on the shoulder.

  3. for turkey

     

    the nova. most turkey hunting, well in my state you can only have one tag for one season and that means one shot one kill. Most every one I know shoots with a pump or a single shot just for that reason. But if you can have more than one tag in your pocket. Than I would go with the m2 or sbe.

  4. Moving is an option but illinois is two states. chicago and the rest of illinois and chicago as 40% of the vote. That doesn't leave alot of room of the rest of us.

     

    Believe me, all hunters in illinois are trying to make things better

  5. Thanks Tucker,

     

    The bar would be a second choice but ar's are against the law to hunt with in illinois. You can only have a max. of 5 round in a centerfire rifle to hunt. I was just hoping and dreaming

  6. Does anyone think they will ever offer the r1 in .223 or .243, or 204? I would buy one in a heartbeat. See when benelli built the R1 they didn't think of us Illinois people because we can only hunt varments with a rifle.

  7. With the loads out now I would go with the m2. Being a nova man, I used to shoot 3 1/2 for turkey and waterfowl. But the right 3 inch shell will work just fine. You can always buy a m2 and a reg. nova and it would about the same price and you would have the versatlity of both worlds. Nova's (8lbs) will handle the bigger loads better for waterfowl and the m2 is great for upland game.

  8. I would have to agree with Tim. I think color chokes is a personal choice. I like extended choke that are just labeled on the outside. Briley makes great chokes, but I would check out carlsons chokes. http://www.choketube.com They are backed for a lifetime and you can shoot lead,steel,heavyshot, or anything esle you want to shoot.
