Pattern Problems With SBE II for turkey hunting
Jerry martin replied to Jerry martin's topic in Benelli
I am aiming at the head. I am use to this aiming based on other guns I use such as the benelli M-1 and would like to be consistent. Thanks for the input. It makes good sense. -
I have the same problem with my new SBE, 12 ga, 24" barrell. It shoots very high with their full choke and turkey loads. I tryed the c shim also and it did not improve it much, if any. I am accustomed to putting the bead on the center of my target with my other M1 benelli. I would like to hear more from your experiment or any other folks that might be able to help out.

Pattern Problems With SBE II for turkey hunting
Jerry martin replied to Jerry martin's topic in Benelli
I have not tested it with all the chokes but is shooting very high with the full choke and using turkey loads. I want to bring the POI down , not up. I do not do trap. Thanks for your input. -
I recently bought a new SBE II , 12 ga, with 24" barrell and had shot it a few times at quail using IC choke and did not seem to hit very good but never patterned it. Then, as turkey season was to start I started patterning it with their full choke tube. I was amazed when I was hardly on the turkey poster . All of my hits were very high , most off the paper , all at about 35 yards. I used 3 different kind of winchester shells( all # 5's) including 3" magnum lead, 3" supreme extended range, and 3 1/2 " supreme elite extended range. The first thing I did was put in the C shim to increase the drop. No significant change in results however. Anyone faced this problem and got any ideas on how to fix the problem ? I also have a M1 benelli that shot the turkeys target head almost off under the same shooting conditions and tests.
