Title: Setting up new M2
Post by: RiverRoost on May 04, 2023, 08:40:15 AM
I picked up the benelli M2 with 21" barrel and with MS turkey season over I have a long time to get this gun dialed in. What choke/shell combo has anyone has luck with? I have 2 boxes of apex 3" 2 1/4oz #9's left from this season so if anyone has had success with those shells that would be a good start to cut some patterning costs. This is my first benelli so I am starting from scratch on chokes.

Man, I think you got the best semi auto 12ga turkey gun made! The .665 IC or .655 IC depending on hot hot of a core you want.  Either will be crazy with the 2.25oz of 9's. 
Top is 2oz handload with .655
Bottom is sameload with .665

That would be a job counting all those holes. I reckon I'm lazy and eyeball it. No room to hide for sure, great pattern.
