Brand new Benelli Nova. No modifications other then a recoil pad.
Went to do some pattern testing for upcoming turkey season. Had a box of Remington Turkey Nitros (3") and a box of Hevi-13's (3").
The Hevi-13's would fire off each time but the 2 rounds I tried firing with the Turkey Nitros were misfires. When I looked at the primers, I didn't seem like a very big dimple compared to other shells I've shot through different shotguns. See the comparisons below.
Hevi-13 on left. Nitro on Right
This is a Win. 3" shell fired from a Mossberg 500
As you can see, the shell on the 2nd photo appears to be hit a lot harder then the Nova is hitting my shells.
Is this normal for the Nova or should I send it in?
