BrewtownJohn Posted February 18, 2006 Posted February 18, 2006 As I haven't been able to shoot them yet... here goes the next best thing. Hitting the message boards. The only additional cost that I'm worried about is the 3+1 capacity on the ComforTech M2 Tactical vs the 5+1 on the non-ComforTech M2 Tact. And yes, I do realize that mag extensions are available. For those of you who own both ComforTech and non-ComforTech... Would you please try and explain how much value you put on ComforTech? And would you be willing to go non-ComforTech for any reasons? Additional info, I do intend to get a 28' field barrel for birds and clays... and maybe a slug barrel down the road for the WI whitetails. Any input would be appreciated. BrewtownJohn.

I own a Super Sport and the comfortech system works great. My uncle has an M-1 and it bucks hard and jumps harder. With the M-1, its very hard to get back on for a second shot because of the muzzle jump. My Super Sport hardly moves. Much less recoil and very easy follow up shots. This is my experience with them and I hope this helps. Quote
Russ F. Posted February 19, 2006 Posted February 19, 2006 Yes, The Comfortech in my case was not so good due too 4 degree wheather I was hunting in. The rubber inlays that make it work got as hard as a rock. And the gun kicked like a mule. Not to says that it's not worth it, but with all the hipe, I thought it would be better than it is. Quote
bassman Posted February 19, 2006 Posted February 19, 2006 Thats interesting. I never thought about what severe cold would do to it. I guess most recoil pads would get hard in that cold of weather. Do you know of any that would stay soft in sub-freezing temperatures? Quote
usmarine Posted February 24, 2006 Posted February 24, 2006 I hunted numerous times with my Benelli SBE II with COMFORTECH and it was cold, cold, cold, here in MN. And my gun worked great. My friends' also had no problem with theirs. So I don't know what to say. Quote
Russ F. Posted February 25, 2006 Posted February 25, 2006 oh, the gun worked great but the cool harden rubber and 1500 fps shot shells made the gun kick like a mule. I know I can add some anti-recoil stuff to the gun to help with that problem. Quote

Nico57 Posted April 4, 2006 Posted April 4, 2006 Yesterday I shot my new nova at a gobbler using #4 shot in a 3 inch shell(i don't believe that the 31/2 inch shell gets you any additional distance just more recoil from the extra 1/4 oz) Anyway I have the standard recoil pad not the comfortech or gel. When I levelled off on that Gobbler I didn't even feel the recoil ! That turkey bit the dust at 48 yards using a 26 Inch bbl and Mod choke...Awesome ! I think you can kill em out to 55 0r 60 yds.

MOFOWLER Posted April 4, 2006 Posted April 4, 2006 You are rarely going to feel recoil when shooting at game 60 yds. with a mod. choke? I don't think that is the most efficient set up Quote
