QuoteAfter getting such great patterning results last year from my SBE "duck" gun and seeing good patterns from other Benelli's here on the forum, I decided I was going to get a Nova for sticky a turkey gun and put a Red Dot on it as I didn't want to drill and tap the "duck" gun and wanted a pistol/steady grip. In the process of looking for a Nova, I ran across a deal on a 24" SBE. I found a pistol grip or steady grip stock for it, had the barrel drilled/tapped/and Weaver rail mounted, and mounted a Burris FF II to the gun. I wanted to get the gun dipped after I had the gunsmith work done, but I don't think I have enough time before turkey season. So, I'm not going to chance it. Here's some pics of the gun and patterns. Shot some factory loaded Hevi-Shot 7's when I was dialing the Red Dot in. Got some very nice results. These were at 40 yards.One at 20 yards just to see where the Red Dot was hitting.Also, shot some of the TSS reloads. The first was 2oz of TSS #9's at 40 yards and the second was 1oz of TSS #9's and 5/8oz Hevi-shot 7.5's at 40 yards.Very happy with the end results and really liking the FF II. It's going to be a bad year to be a turkey.
