Benelli or?

{Personally, I have shot, but not owned, the Benelli's.....they are very well made, BUT I have found that since they were lighter, they kicked more......I have also found in my limited experience, that they didn't handle light loads very well - necessitating heavy target or field loads....which, combined with their light weight, means they kick more}

I own a SBEII. I bought it to shoot skeet with, as well as hunt turkeys . I use for skeet the weakest load I can get, ie. 2 3/4 dram powder under 1 1/8 oz lead. Never had a malf. in over 1,000 rounds fired. I fired a few of the heaviest 3 1/2" turkey loads I could find at skeet & the recoil was not too bad....

YMMV
