RICK99 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 I HAVE A SBE1 AND MY HUNTING PARTNER JUST BOUGHT A NEW SBEII. HIS GUN HAS FAR MORE RECOIL THAN MY OLD ONE. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT COULD BE WRONG OR ANTHING THAT COULD BE DONE TO CHANGE THE KICK. HE HAS BEEN USING AN OLD MAG 10 REMINGTON AND SWEARS THAT THE SBE II RECOIL IS FAR WORSE. Quote
tucker301 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Shoot lighter loads or add a recoil suppresor. Quote
Paolo Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 What exactly is a recoil suppresor? Doesn't the SBEII already have the recoil system in the stock? Paul Quote

sdkidaho Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Worse recoil than his old 10 gauge? That'd suck. Maybe you guys are holding the wrong end of the gun? Quote
420W Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 I'll bet that old 10 bore goes around ten pounds. I would rather have a little recoil than not have the strength to sholder the gun when the time came. Quote
IdahoDucker Posted February 10, 2006 Posted February 10, 2006 Was the remington a gas gun? I'm not familiar with remington 10's. I could see a 3.5" 12 in a Benelli kicking more than a 10 in a gas gun. Benelli's require recoil to work so if kick is a problem for someone then a Benelli isn't the right gun. My buddy has an Ithaca Mag 10 and it's very soft on the shoulder. [ 02-09-2006, 11:04 PM: Message edited by: IdahoDucker ] Quote
420W Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I shot my new SBEII for the first time today. I started out with 2 3/4 high brass then worked up to 3 1/2 2oz loads. you bet they kick but i can live with it it just differs from my other guns, the browning i traded off had more of a push this is sharper but bearable. I don't want to add any weight to the gun and when i'm shooting at game i won't even feel it. Quote

joe117 Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 With the same sort of loading, the SBEII will kick harder than a 10ga gas operated gun. If you start adding weight such as one of those mercury recoil reducers, you will reduce recoil. I wouldn't do that. If the recoil is a big deal to you, get one of those pads to go on your shoulder. And keep in mind, most hunters wear heavy jackets and such. And the really heavy loads don't get used for very many shots anyway. The SBEII with heavy loads is never going to be a light recoil gun. The gun is light and the action system doesn't do much to reduce recoil. Quote
PARKZE71 Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 another question ? about the recoil reducer i know that it replaces the mag. cap on most of the benelli's , but i was wondering if any of you know if there is still a place to put a sling swivel?? Quote
tucker301 Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 Not on the mag cap model. They also have a limiter plug model, but you'll need to tell them the specific length (measure the factory plug) for the weapon. Quote
