I know this is a silly question but I thought I would ask it anyway. I have a SBEII turkey gun in the advantage timber pattern and just love it. I would like to get a 20 guage 24" M2 for my son and daughter to start to turkey hunt with but cannot seem to find one. Does anyone have a Benelli 20 Guage in Advantage Timber that they would like to sell. or Here is the dumb question. Could I buy a separate 20 guage barrel and put it on the 12 guage Benelli that I already own. When I look at the Benelli 20 guage pictures it looks to me as though it is just a smaller barrel and I am wondering if the gun would function if I just bought the 20 guage barrel. Thanks for any info. Bill

Thanks for the info. I was advised that they had two in stock but the price is $534.00 which is way too high for me. I guess I will search for one used. Thanks Bill

Hello: I bought a SBE2 turkey gun that came with the Steady Grip stock. I would like to buy a comfortech stock for my gun. I am looking for one with the Realtree Advantage Timber camo pattern. Anyone know where I can get one of these and how much do they usually go for? Thanks Bill Kemp [email protected]

Thanks again for the info on the barrel. It has already been delivered to my friends place and from what he is telling me it is a beauty. Regards Bill

Thanks for the info. I went to the gunbroker website, there was one being auctioned off and only had 51 minutes left in the auction. I was able to create a user id and then bid on it and won the auction getting the barrel for $480.00 US. A huge savings since they want almost $800.00 Canadian for the same barrel here in Canada. Thanks for the info. Bill

I would like to get a rifled slug barrel to go on my Benelli SBEII camo turkey gun. Anyone know where the cheapest place to get one is and who has them in stock. Thanks Bill Kemp email [email protected]

I do not know the term. Can you make the length of pull (I think it is called) longer? I placed the stock in the bend of my elbow and measured where my finger goes across the trigger. It is between the first and 2nd. joint of the trigger finger. I take it from this that I could use a longer stock. Am I correct? Thanks Bill

Hello: Does anyone know if the steady grip stock can be adjusted in any way. New to the Benelli world and thought I would ask. Thanks Bill

Hello: I would like to ask about how things are sized with turkey chokes. I bought my Benelli SBE II and the guys threw in a Mad Max II turkey choke (not ported). It states that the constriction is a .660 constriction. I would like to use the Federal Premium High Velocity turkey load that has the flite control wad. They state that the restriction should be .665 or larger. See below info: Revolutionary Flitecontrol™ wads stay with shot longer, providing more pellets on target, and 30% tighter patterns than traditional wad systems. Copper-plated buffered shot for dense, tight, uniform patterns. High velocity. 10 rounds per box. Per the manufacturer, optimal performance will be obtained when used with non-ported chokes having a constriction of .665 of an inch and larger. Ported chokes can be used, but may not pattern as well. Here are the questions: 1. Am I able to use this ammunition with the mad max choke that was given to me? 2. What do the numbers mean as they go up or down? Sorry for posting so many questions lately but I am a new owner and want to learn as much as possible. Regards Bill

A Benelli Super Black Eagle II (Advantage Timber camo pattern). I have the steady grip stock on it. Thanks Bill

I am planning to go to New York in a few weeks. Anyone have a lead as to where a good place would be to pick up one of the rifled barrels in advantage timber. Like most of us, price is always the decision maker. Bill

Thanks very much for the info. I will have to do some more research about sight's as I do not want to make a decision that I would regret down the line by rushing things. Thanks again. Bill

What model of Aimpoint are you using? Thanks Bill

Hello everyone: I would really like to get a sight for my new SBE II but would like to ask your opinions about the following two sights. 1. Burris Speed Dot 135 (It does come in Advantage timber that would match my SBE II) 2. Burris Fastfire Sight. I do not think that this comes in Advantage Timber (yet). No one shows what the size of the dot would be or if it is a cross hair style. Also can you change the type of pattern that shows up on the screen or change the size of the dot for when you are shooting longer distances. If you have one can you please give your opinions. Thanks Bill

Hello: I just purchased a SBE II with the steady grip up in the Orillia area of Ontario. Bass Pro had it for $2195.00 Canadian, and all other stores could get it for me for around the same price. The best I could do was to get Bass Pro to give me a 10% discount. Anyway, a girl at work advised me of a store in the Orillia area called Elwood EPPS named after a famous Canadian Shooter. All said and done I called up there and they had 3 of the Benelli's with the 24" barrel, Advantage Timber camo, with the steady grip. They wanted $1495.00 Canadian. What a great deal for the gun. I got one right away. The only question I have is what is everyone using for slings for the steady grip stock and what is everyone using for sights for the gun? Your opinions help to inform a novice in the Benelli world.

I am thinking of getting a Burris Red dot 135 in advantage Timber for my SBE II. Does anyone out there have one that can give an opinion. Does this come with a camo base? Where is the cheapest place to get this with the camo weaver base (If it comes with it). Any other bases that people are using and why? Thanks for the help. Bill:(

Hello everyone: Thanks for all of the info. I was able to unscrew the bead very easily and when done I noticed that the little ball on the end was not exactly 100% centred. I then put it back in, this time with removable locktite and centred the bead perfectly. I know that this seems very minor but I like everything I own to be absolutely perfect. Thanks again for all of the assistance. Bill:)

Thanks very much for the info. I take it that the bead is threaded into the barrel. Is there any lok tight on it? Bill

Hello: I just purchased a Super Black Eagle II and would like to ask if anyone knows how the little bead site is placed in the middle of the barrel. It appears to be slightly off of centre and I was wondering if it can be adjusted. Can anyone answer the following questions: 1. Is the bead (back site) screwed in, pressed in, or glued into place. 2. It appears as though the little ball of the bead is not exactly in the centre of the base of the site. Is this on purpose. IE can it be rotated so that it moves so that it can be rotated into perfect sighting alignment? 3. How would a person adjust, or remove this bead site so that it is exactly in the centre of the vented ramp. Thanks for all of your help. Newbie Benelli owner. Bill Kemp
