Super Nova Or SBE II

[Strigger]

I am shopping for a new Benelli, I would like to have the auto but the price differance for the pump is rather large. I have a few 870's now so a pump is not a proble. My ? is about proformance, Is there a differance here? I can assume no but, there are alott of SBEII's out there. My use will mainly be Turkey hunting. I am looking for advice and/or recomendations.thanks

for turkey

 

the nova. most turkey hunting, well in my state you can only have one tag for one season and that means one shot one kill. Most every one I know shoots with a pump or a single shot just for that reason. But if you can have more than one tag in your pocket. Than I would go with the m2 or sbe.

Here in SC we get 5 tags. You can kill 2 per day. But there's still a lot of Nova shooters here. I don't think you can go wrong either way. That 870 is a heckuva gun too though.

 

Besides speed, I really don't know advantages for SBEII. I do shoot the SBEII and I can say I like it's light weight. It points real good for me and has a quick follow up. I hope I don't need the follow up on Turkeys but I have it just in case.

 

If you have the extra cash, spring for the Black Eagle II. You won't go wrong either way.... Good luck

The Supernova is an awesome choice for the task at hand.The amount of goodies you could buy with the money you save is quite large.Go to your gunshop with plenty of time on your hands,and stare at both Benelli's until one of them speaks to you.That will be your partner for life! You will win either way.
