Benelli M2 choke recommendations?

Post by golfernash »

I am building a M2 and am planning on running Hal's 2 oz 2.75 load. 21 inch barrel. I have a .665 IC coming for it. Are there any other chokes I should try if the IC does not work?
Thanks

I have that exact same gun and have a Carlson Longbeard .665 that shoots very nice patterns with that load. It will usually put 290 to 300 in the 10 inch and about the same number in the 10 to 20. My gun shoots a nice even well formed pattern.

And his Tennessee Twister is doing 420 in a 2 3/4” load.
Light recoil to boot

I shoot the factory full in my sbe2. Right at 300 in the 10 and over 250 in the 20. I would start there.

I have a M2 with a 21 inch barrel . The IC 665 works really good with several loads . I haven’t found anything better . I did pick up a Jebs 660 . When the weather gets better I will compare the 2 . I may be picky but my only complain about the IC is the extended portion is rough and picks up dirt and debris . I wouldn’t go crazy buying a bunch of tubes . The IC is pretty darn good .
