leftybenelli Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 I am assuming that I am using the correct terminology.....! What are the pros and cons for the Benelli barrel to have ribs that decrease in height as it reaches the end of the muzzle? I notice on most other brands that the ribs remain the same height, along the entire length of the barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cons: It makes you shoot above the bead if you like shooting bead-on-target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftybenelli Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 So what are my options? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agm65ccip Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 So what are my options? If you like above the bead shooting, do nothing you bought a great gun. If you currently shoot bead-on-target you still bought a great gun but you have 2 real options: 1. Learn to love/shoot above the bead. 2. Bring the POI down through shimming the stock AND/OR jacking the front sight up by using a larger bead or a pistol/rifle front sight to counter the rib slope.
