  1. they do but 20 gauge's are becoming more and more popualr. Mind you they don't put as many pellets in a 10" circle at 40 yards but they still put a good 150-200 #7's. Which no matter what is a dead bird.

  2. Looking at getting a M2 20 gague 26" barrel in real tree and making it a turkey gun. Does the 20 gauge come with the steady grip option? I didn't see it on the site. If not will a regular steady grip from a 12 gauge SBEII or M2 fit it? Thanx in advance

  3. I got a jelly head choke and I haven't found a load that it patterns well with. I am running an indian creek now and am getting 220+ in a 9.5" circle at 40.

     

    I got it mint but for some stupid reason I always find myself tinkering with it to get it better. From what I have red online the federal flight controlled loads. (heavy and lead) should work quite well with the jelly head. Start with the cheaper ones of course.

  4. All three are #6's. I have been using the 3.5" 1.75oz #6 in the gun last season the half the season before. THey pattern the best out of anything that I have patterned! ALso the #5's weren't to shabby either.

    Another load to try is the Federal Heavyweight. I have yet to find a dealer around me but I have heard alot of good about them in Benelli's

  6. For now I'm using my waterfowling SBEII with an Indian Creek choke. These were done in the middle of jan when it was -4* out. It's a little tighter in the spring and I actually get the best patterns with the 3.5" 1.75oz in either 4, 5, or 6's. Never patterned anything else because thats the only three shot sizes we are legally aloud to use.

    I have dialed her in pretty good and have been using open sights the whole time. I finally decided to pattern it at 20 yards (which is where I shot most of my birds) The pattern was just over 4" wide!!! Seeing that made me realized my 8-0 has been lucky and I need to add a scope. I have the base from weaver on order and now just deciding on a scope. Also thinking about adding a pistol grip stock.

  7. Only issue with my SBE was I lost the front fiber optic and a local gun shop got me a replacement for free. Now a guy I used to hunt with has your issue plus it's been jamming up on him alot. One shot wonder we call him. It gets worse and worse as the weather gets colder. He's sent it in for repairs 2 time now with zero results. He ended up just selling it to someone with out telling them about the issues :( He's a real sport.

  8. I use a SBE II with a waterfowl barrel and have spent $100's upon $100's on chokes and different loads and my best pattern has been Hevi 13's in 2oz with my Indian Creek 0.665!!! I'd post pics but haven't got enough posts yet. I'm working on it! It put 234 #6's in a 9.75" circle at 40 yards. at 20 yards my pattern is about 4" :S. I'm adding a scope this year. I haven't missed with stock sights but it will happen soon enough!
