moto680 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 I am trying to decide between a Legacy and Sport II 12 gauge. I will be using the gun primarily for pheasant hunting, some trap shooting. Any imput as to which gun would be better? Performance wise for my intended purposes, which would be the better way to go? How do these guns function compared to other guns? Am I on the right path? I was thinking 28" or 30" barrel? Can the barrel from the Sport II be put on the Legacy?

SuperNovaGuy Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 Hi moto Neither of those guns come with the Comfortech system I dont know how much shooting you're going to be doing, but it seems like a lot of people enjoy the recoil reduction from that feature The Benelli website will tell you that the Legacy is about both style and performance, while the Sport II is more of a sporting gun (with the crio chokes, ported barrel) Of course they are both based on the same internals, so I believe its a matter of taste another consideration is the environment you hunt in i settled on a 28in Nova for upland and trap, with a 30 inch barell you might the gun difficult in the woods im sure someone else whos actually shot both can tell you more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wallhanger54 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 If you're thinking about the Sport II and looking for the Comfortech system then I would look to the Supersport. It has the Comfortech, Crio barrel is ported and the Legacy or Montefeltro barrels are interchangeable on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moto680 Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 am I correct in saying their are only two differences between the sport II and the legacy? 1. The legacy has the engravings. 2. The barrells on the legacy and sport II are different? Is the sport II barrel and gun in general more made for trap shooting than hunting. (Primarily be hunting pheasants) The reason I am asking is asthetically I like the stock and chamber of the legacy but I like the barrel of the sport II. And yes asthetics are somewhat important. If it would be good for hunting I could put the Sport II barrel on a legacy correct? (But only if it would fit the purpose of hunting well) I don't think the comfortech system is all that big of a deal to me. But i really don't know that entirely much about it. I won't be doing an extreme amount of repeatitive shooting (such as trap). So the recoil shouldn't be that big of an issue. But maybe somebody could tell me a little more about it. How does it work. Is it worth all the hype? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
