steiger68 Posted October 15, 2022 Share Posted October 15, 2022 I was looking online at both the SBE 3 performance shop waterfowl (still available at some retailers) and the M2 20ga version. Seems the M2 does not have the tuned trigger group or the honed and polished bolt. Wonder why ? Also are the upgrades worth it ?

remarkable Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 There is no mention of "tuned trigger group or the honed and polished bolt," after 2019 Benelli Dealer Workbook. I will be contact Rob Roberts this week on other topics as well. This is on both 12 & 20 gauge models. Will update after contact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steiger68 Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 I was looking at 2022 version. Do you have the dealer specs for it .. All I hear is how these guns shoot high still to this day so I’m nervous to even buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remarkable Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Spoke to Rob Roberts today, both 12 & 20 gauge Performance Shop Waterfowl SBE 3 & M2 - honed and polished action, custom-tuned trigger group, ended after the 2019 build guns. I personally own a SBE PS 3 which was patterned by Rob Roberts - pattern included with every gun. The center of the pattern was Center slightly low of POA, with 1/2". Most "Shooting High" issues are caused by improper fitting, you must have the barrel flat. Remembering you are shooting the gun... Benelli fitting system is very effective to bring most shooters into above said position - Flat Rib! I have found several shooters benefit from casting the gun left handed/right hand shooter to get proper eye alignment, side to side. It is critical to note Benelli Pattern Specs - no one talks about this critical metric. CENTER OF PATTER MAY BE: Up to 2" left or right of Point of Aim Up to 5" above Point Of Aim Up to 2" below Point Of Aim AT 21 YARDS Most SBE 3's WHEN FITTED PROPERLY will shot with the delta 1-3 inches high at 21 yards, this establishes a great 60/40 pattern. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steiger68 Posted October 18, 2022 Author Share Posted October 18, 2022 Wow. Thanks for the info. All the SBE 3 PS listed on gun broker all claim to have the 2019 and earlier specs and say they are late 2021 and early 2022 production. I held a Ethos cordoba best today and felt amazing. Any issues with these ? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
