wildturp Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I have a new SBE 2 and I'm getting ready to purchase a jellyhead .660 and 3 1/2" nitros H51013 4x5x7. Is this the right combo and when I purchase the choke will it fit if it just says benelli or does it have to be a special choke for the SBE2?

I don't get good patterns from that Nitro shell and my Jellyhead or Rhino .660 in my SBE II. The Nitro shell always shoots low. About the only shell that I like in the Jelly or Rhino is the Win XR #6's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowhntr1980 Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 Jellyhead is specific for SBE II. I had the best pattern using Hevi 13 3.5" #6 in 2 1/4 oz. load with my SBE II and Jellyhead .660. Win. XR 3.5" #6 was second followed by Fed. f/c 3.5" #6 mag. shock. My gun did not seem to like any of the high velocity loads. Check back a few threads for the Jellyhead thread that Mud started and he and I both have pattern pics on there. Good Luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CraigL Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I tried several chokes and almost every load made in my sbe2 last year. I bought some nitro ammunition 3 1/2" 2oz shells and a Rhino .660. At 40 yards we quit counting at 100 in the kill zone. I dumped 2 birds last year at 50 and dumped a field bird in NYS at 84 yards. Everyone who sees my patterns winds up going to Rhino chokes and Nitro ammo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the shells have the same order in the Indian Creek tube also. I'm lovin the Hevi-13 2 1/4 oz. this spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowhntr1980 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Hey Sawyer, Gander Mtn. usually sells Hevi 13 as well as the other loads. You may also want to check your local pro shops too. They are usually easier to work with and can special order items with less hassle than larger companies such as Cabelas, Gander, Dick's etc. If all else fails, Cabelas does sell Hevi 13 and you can order them. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HUNT2HUNT Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 If you want a SBE2 combo that put an amazing number of pellets in the neck of a Gobbler today, read my previous post. The Kicks .655 Gobblin Thunder. Winchester Supreem # 6 in 3.5 put that big Tom down for the count where he stood. Whoever said the SBE2 is not a great Turkey gun is wrong. Oh Man it put the smack down on him. Having hunted waterfowl for many years, I was concerned as this was my first Turkey hunt. Read many posts knocking the Benelli as a bad choice for Turkeys. Yea right. The SBE2 is the best semi-auto I have ever owned. I'm even a bigger fan of this shotgun now as ever. The SBE2 shooting 3.5's is a Turkey killing machine. Will put some on paper and post. Also bought a box of Remington Nitros in # 7 to test. 10" beard on my first Turkey of my life at age 50. Us old guys can still get it done.
