Benelli SBE I Pattern
That'll do it. But I think I'd want to pull that down a few inches...
Agreed... Had to shim up the back site and raise the comb. I was shooting about 10 inches low. My shoulder couldn't take any more punishment today. Those shells will thump you good!
Just a thought, I have a Kicks 655 also. Do you all think its worth trying it?
That will hunt. I would say your .665 will shoot better than the .655 by a littel bit.
I would also bet money that if you were to get your hands on a good .670 turkey choke like the Haymaker that pattern would only get better.
Ask VaTurkey how his Haymaker shot in his Benelli.
Here's why I said what I said. Ricky don't lie. That pattern he shot is awesome.

That choke will shoot 3.5" 7's even better. A lot better. :funnyturkey:
Thanks for the advice.. I will definitely look into that. May need to stick with what i have for now.$$$$

I can understand that. Just passing out the info if you want to use it eventually. That choke may be one of the best chokes on the market.
I just bought one for my 870. But I have't been able to shoot it yet.
Thank you, after looking at the pattern I might just squeeze out a few more dollars for the Haymaker. Big difference. Thanks again.

Yes it is. And I have no doubt whatsoever you will see a big difference in your barrel with that choke as well. I'm not a big fan of the old myth that every barrel is different. That's like saying every choke is different - that if you take 10 chokes of the exact same model, brand, and constriction that one will do a little better than all the rest, but all typically will shoot just about the same. The same thing will go pretty much for shotgun barrels of the same make. I have seen a choke that shoots very well in one 870 28" barrel I had and that same choke would shoot very well in my other shorter 21" barrel 870. I can take that exact same choke and put it in a buddy's 870 28" barrel and get just as good of patterns typically with the exact same loads.
