I have a SBE II for waterfowl I just put a speed bead on it seems great, been way to cold to go try it out. My question is I'm kicking around a new SBEII for turkey, are the fastfire and the speedbead the same just different mounting brackets? I have a red dot on my Nova now. But I like the profile of the speed bead and if I was going to build a new gun I would like to put a Burris on it. I don't know much about them except with out a dot I'm not as accurate!
Thanks for the info!

Speedbead will be closer to your eye so your field of view will be wider. I also understand that it sits low enough that you can still sight down your barrel looking through the window should your battery or electronics give out.
SB has you covered. Its the same sight with a different mount. :icon_thumright:
I love my speed bead on my beretta! :icon_thumright:
Thanks guys, that is the route I'll be going speed bead on my new SBEII can't wait!
I have mine mounted on my 870 but have yet to shoot it. I REALLY like the way it operates though. It's very low and seems like it will be easy to get used to with minimal effort. I will be zeroing it within the next few days and will post a review of it.
here is my SBE2 with FF2

I have/had both. They are both great sights but I will take the FF all day every day.
To me it has a bigger field of view and has a low profile and clean look.
