Benelli or Beretta - Page 2

thanks for all the posts. I finally decided on the SBE because of the way it shouldered, plain and simple it just felt better.

with this gun I felt like my sights lined up better therefore, my first shot would be a more accurate of a shot than the Beretta's first shot, even though the next shots would kick more with the Benelli. My first shot is more important to me then my follow up shots. If I cant hit with my first then I should not be worrying about the next shot

Been dumping ducks with a good old Mossberg 500A Turkey Combo for years and I'm ready for an upgrade. Not that there's anything wrong with my Mossy, have no intentions of getting rid of it, but I've been eyeballing the Beretta A391 Extrema2for a while now, but before I drop that kind of cash, I need to know that it won't let me down if it gets a little water, marsh, snow, or duck feathers in it.. Thoughts?

Browning's new A5 looks awfully pretty. Over the whole cleaning issue I would totally go benelli while holding and fitting each to my shoulder in the store.

I own the A400 Xtreme Unico and absolutely LOVE IT! It cycles everything I give it and the recoil reduction is as advertised. I've hunted pheasant, quail, chukar, and turkey so far, as well as spent time at the range and I've not had a single failure. It cycles extremely fast and recoils straight back so that you are back on target faster.

I have a buddy that bought a Super Vinci and in spite of it's excellent reputation, it failed to cycle from the moment he took it out of the box. I want to say that I think this is one of those rare exceptions, because the ARGO system has a great reputation, but it did give me pause to recommend Benelli.

Every time I hunt or spend time at the range, people drool over my A400.

If you go with the Beretta you will absolutely not be disappointed.
