True. What is interesting is that the the Hornady Critical Defense uses the same wad but in my experience isn't as tight after 15 yards. I only tested LE127 because it cycles every semi auto i've ever tried it in; the LE133 seems hit or miss in M4s and 1301s in my experience. This also shows that the claim that flite control must be used through a cylinder choke or else performance will suffer is false. I also patterned an M4 sbs and a Nova Tactical/SP if people are interested in those.

Hi all, I patterned an M4 at 7, 15, and 25 yards with different buckshot loads (estate, federal, hornady (8 pellet critical duty). Thought you might be interested. Also tried wolf and s and b but those exceeded the max upload. They aren't available now and performed poorly after 15 yards anyways. Note: each target has a hanger hole at 12 o'clock at the top, it isn't a pellet hole. This was with an 18.5" M4 with factory removable modified choke. Cliff notes: only the Federal LE 127-00 would put all 9 pellets on the paper at 25 yds (nice 6" ish groups). 20251223_233513126_iOS.heic 20251223_233603271_iOS.heic 20251223_233905148_iOS.heic 20251223_233626249_iOS.heic 20251223_233653264_iOS.heic 20251223_233717139_iOS.heic 20251223_233739853_iOS.heic 20251223_233811136_iOS.heic 20251223_233836970_iOS.heic

Use the oil Benelli included with it.

KZ. Been abusing it since 2008. https://botach.com/kz-oversized-charging-handle-for-benelli-m4-shotgun/

Can you take a few more photos or a video? I am trying to see how the spring seats into the retainer on the tube. Can you compress the spring with one hand and free the piston with another? I assume that spring adds tension to the gen2 handguard? Does the owner's manual say anything?

I wonder what a completely stock one would go for nowadays.

Yeah it kinda sucks. I had one M4 that ran ANYTHING. Others seem to not like the really low fps buckshot and cheap birdshot. I have found that the Estate buckshot is a great balance of tight pattern, good reliability and price.

Which flitecontrol? The 1145 advertised fps? I have a few M4s that don't like it. Even ones that are completely stock. Did your M4 function with the flitecontrol before mods?

They have been available in the U.S. for a while at LE distributors as a "Gen 2" model. https://botach.com/benelli-m4-18-5-shotgun-w-5-position-stock-7-1-full-tube-gen-2/

I like how we have been informed that he was a white supremacist incel hispanic even though he murdered mostly other hispanics. Yet we don't have the Nashville transgender school shooter's manifesto yet. Shocking.

No one watch this review. The reviewer is not a gunsmith. I repeat, NOT a gunsmith.

Ask your procurement officer is there are exceptions for sole sources. That way you don't have to jump through the t&e/approval hoops. At least some .gov entities have that option.

Dang, you must be quite the Billy Bad Ass to call a member of the SAS a fool. Now you've got me scared.

Tell the British SAS they are doing it wrong.
