psyd Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I really like the look of the montefeltro (silver), but I noticed when I shoulder the gun the beads line (stack) up properlyBUT I still see a lot of the top of the rib. With m2 the beads line up (stack up) properly, but I do not see any of the top of the rib. If I hold my head WAY DOWN on the stock of the monte the beads are not stacked the first is BEHIND the second.Is this the difference between a raised rib and receiver flush rib? I am looking for a good 20 ga. light gun for chukar hunting in the west desert. Both fit the bill but I do like the loks of the monte silver. The only other difference is the sight picture. I am used to a raised rib. Any suggestions/guidance woudld be great. Thanks S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker301 Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 Generally speaking, the European shotguns are designed to have front bead stacked atop the mid bead, with the target fully in view just above both of them. I see a little rib on my SBEII and have become accustomed to a slightly lower cheek weld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbnewby Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I posted the same question on another sight. I was told that the M2 was much easer to clean than the Monte. Is the truth? What other differences are there between the two? I spend about half of my time hunting upland and waterfowl. The main upland bird is that I hunt is the chuckar . I need a lighter gun because of all the hiking that is involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
