Hello all, newbie here first post. Pheasanthunter, I also just bought a new benelli, an M2 in twenty gauge. I read a lot of info about these guns not necessarily cycling light loads. I took the gun out of packaging and wiped it all down with Mobil 1 synthetic that I use in my bike and on all my firearms. Went to the range and shot a case/250rnds of 2 3/4, 7/8oz, #8 shot with not one failure.( except missing some clays! Not the guns fault though.) I read about a lot of guys having trouble with this light of load. Just try what you have. If they don't work, try something else. It's early in the game for me but I would not have a problem buying those loads again. Even going to try the 3/4oz loads next. Super comfy to shoot. Good luck.
