Title: My team made me do it
Post by: Bustabeak on February 07, 2013, 07:34:23 PM
If any one asks, you guys made me buy this!! Been wanting one for a long time and finally got a bit of money back on my taxes so I pulled the trigger!

Wow! That is a beautiful gun.  What choke and shells are you planning on using in her?  I will take the blame for talking someone into getting a gun that pretty.  Congratulations!  :z-guntootsmiley:

Thanks guys! I've put so much time into looking for the shells and chokes for my stoeger that I really haven't done any research on this one... I'm thinking i'll start with Winchester extended range #6's and maybe indian creek choke... but I'm open to suggestions! haha.

Yep, it's better to beg for forgiveness than ask permission. That's a top shelf turkey killer!

It's always good to know you have good friends to back you up on a gun purchase. I'm pretty sure that's why I'm divorced, but hey, I like my hunting stuff!

Is that a Benelli? Wished I knew they made one in bottomland. At least that looks like bottomland.

Yep, it's the super Vinci. I honestly didn't know they made them in bottomland until about a month ago. From what I've heard, they made limited quantities.  I'm not sure that's accurate though. I sure like it so far!

Yeah I got it at gables sporting goods in Douglasville. I think he said that was his last one. He said he had 2 or 3 at one time.

Do not know what you like in a pattern but saw where one fellow on here was saying he was using the Hevi-Shot Choke .667.  With Hevi 3.5" 2.25 oz 7s he got 244 and with number 6s he got 187.

SumToy suggests a .650 to 660.  I am sure with an IC, PG, Rhino, Jh, or SumToy you could get a great pattern out of it with 6s or 7s.  Keep us up to date!
