I don't know. It does look a little different but I'm not sure it's enough. In fact, with it being flat on the back now in lieu of the original tapered design, it might be worse. Unless they're willing to let me demo one or someone has useful feedback I'm thinking the SBE II might be a better option. It's not a price issue, it's a comfort issue. I do like Benelli and I've killed a lot of different birds with mine but my middle finger is still jacked up from the last day of duck season down here and that was over a week ago.

I registered and got on here just to see if anyone else has a problem with the trigger guard. By problem I mean having the back of the trigger guard hitting the middle finger. I don't have a problem with it unless I'm shooting high-brass express or the Hypersonic 1700fps. Frankly, I can't shoot the Hypersonics, it's just unbearable. I don't think it's a trigger guard design issue, I think it's because the stock compresses so much in order to minimize recoil and allows the trigger guard to "back up" too much. The standard Black Cloud 1350fps ammo doesn't do it. Don't get me wrong, I love the Vinci's we have but I'm thinking I have to go another route if I want to use the high-powered ammo. I'm thinking this may be the downside to the recoil reduction system in the stock and all models set up like this are going to have the same issue. I can't imagine shooting 3.5" mags in a Super Vinci since it has the same trigger guard set up. Maybe a SBE II for the ducks and geese? Ideas?
