Bennelli and Beretta

[fabsroman]

If you liked your Mossberg, you'll love the SBE II. I know I love my SBE. I bought my first Beretta when I got out of college, but it was a trap gun. Bought a Beretta field o/u when I started law school, and bought my SBE right after I got out of law school. I have used the Benelli for almost all my hunting, including slugs, and I really do love the gun. I think it is the easiest gun in the world to take apart and clean thoroughly. I even got the firing pin and rotating bolt out of the gun a couple of weeks ago after hunting in the rain and it was the easiest thing ever. Of course, it was the first time in 8+ years that I did it, so it was pretty dirty. I don't shoot clays with it, but that is only because I have other shotguns to do specifically that. I think the SBE will be my life long hunting gun barring any huge change in technology. Almost broke down and bought the SBE II for the comfortech system, but I had already bought two recoil reducers for the gun, one that I keep in the stock all the time and another I use on the magazine cap when I use slugs, and I just couldn't justify $1,400 to reduce recoil when there are other guns I still want.

Let us know how you like the gun once you start using it some.
