I,m looking for a scope mount (aimpoint) for my Benelli Super Black Eagle for Turkey hunting.

Anyone know of a manufacturer?

Thanks,

Turk

I don't fully understand your question, but aim point makes the mount you are talking about and you can buy it from them.

I put an Aimtech from Brownells on my M1 Super90. It's solid enough to shoot 3" groups at 100yds with sabots and a rifled choke tube. -- Kernel

Go here to find what you are looking for:

As noted they can be ordered from Brownell's.

I have one for my Beretta 390 and they work very well.

Guys,

Is there any chance of the aimtech mount scratching the receiver?

Thanks,

Turk

That might be a good question to put to the people at Aimtech. The mount for my 390 didn't appear to scratch the finish but the Benelli may be different. There are some scratches on my gun but none that I would attribute to the mount. My 390 goes some pretty tough places.

Turk, the Aimtech mount didn't "scratch" my M1 but it did rub off an almost unnoticeable teeny-tiny bit of finish from one high spot where it touched. I consider it inconsequential fair-ware-and-tear, and it probably could have been prevented with the application of a little duct tape. Ultimately I think I came out ahead since the Aimtech mount encases the receiver it protects it from damage in the field. -- Kernel

Thanks everyone for the info.

I ordered an Aimtech mount for my SBE. SquareB has a mount but the AT looks a lot better.
