I've been shooting a SBE II for a couple years now. What are the major differences with the Vinci? I see the Vinci doesn't accept 3 1/2 inch shells and it looks like the trigger guard is more rounded which I'm assuming may help with the Benelli finger issue.

IMHO the choke you choose isn't as important as the firearm/choke tube/ammo combination. With a particular choke tube in your gun a black cloud #3 may shoot perfectly while a Heavy Steel #2 may be erratic. I personally have a Kicks tube in my SBE II and have found 3 or 4 choices of ammo that I know pattern nicely out of that combination.

Awwwe yes the old Benelli finger. I have the same problem with my SBEII and my Dad with his SBE. I bought a little thing from the drug store design to go on a toe (for hammer toe or something). I cut the end off and put it on the middle finger and it seems to cushion it nicely.
My whole hand was black and blue after a day of shooting Cans. on lake St. Clair in Canada last year. This has solved the problem.
