Benelli M2 American, Bottomland, 26"barrel, Hevl-13 choke, Winchester LB 3" #6's 1 3/4oz. Still may try another choke later, but I think this will do the job on one.

20 yards


40 yards, I did adjust my sights after this shot, moved pattern to the right a couple inches, and down a little.

That should put him toes up...Any issues with the gun shooting high like some of the SBE's...??
If you have time can you post a picture of that M2? If I buy another Benelli I'm thinking M2.20 or 12...with all the new loads out I don't shoot 3.5s anymore...

I will get a picture posted for you. Both of those pics are the first shots I took with the gun, so I was pretty pleased with POA vs POI. Gun shot pretty much spot on I thought, shooting off bags the whole pattern maybe 1-2 inches high, if that. I would like to try another choke and see what happens  all they had were these and Rhino chokes.

Did a little more testing today, still same choke and shells, also shot some 3" WLB #6 1 7/8 oz. I also think she likes her barrel dirty....
Excuse my circles, LOL... but you get the idea.
