Benelli Nova Speed review by Jaakko Viitala

[@CarlKlasa]

This is over power in comparison to all other videos with reviews of guns. This is all amazing knowledge and how you show it is the best.

[@PolenarTactical]

Looks like a great shotgun. I especially like the optimized loading port. I have an old M3 and im surprised to see how similar the internals are

[@allanrobichaud6872]

I can never get enough of Jaakko's vids!

[@JLG098721]

Fantastic review. Glad to see an insanely good shooter give feedback.

[@LauriJantunen]

Hyvä ja informatiivinen no bullshit -pätkä ja videot muutenkin vaan paranee!

[@1970kaz]

Very good review, from a specialist . As soon as I get rid of my old one ,I'm going to buy Nova Speed . It seems to be fantastic shotgun.

[@AJKTrialSport]

Thank you very much for your excellent review! I'm new to IPSC (just one year with pistol and rifle) and I've been flirting with a pump gun for a long time. Your great presentation finally convinced me: today I ordered my Nova Speed 😃

[@als363]

Thanks Jaakko! All my questions replied in a video 👍.

[@jessefiorinif6057]

Great video, I saw your reply about the US. Hope they bring it to market in the USA sooner rather then later.

[@eg7381]

This was an excellent review. Thank you.

[@thestandardmanual3446]

Awesome review Jaakko, cant wait to get them in country. Agree the front sight sight would need replacing for the faster target acquisition.

[@jasuhep]

Thanks! I hope you receive yours soon :)

[@topbone]

very fast shots amazing

[@donaldinhochris]

My god. That opening scene

[@brianhewitt338]

Thank you for an excellent,informative video.

[@thomasedvardsson1267]

Nice review and very nice shotgun. Hope to try one soon.

[@wilber4rce]

Nice in depth review thank you for uploading!

[@serguievb]

Thanks Jaakko. Great review. Got my M2 Speed and now waiting for Nova Speed. Looking forward to ordering your 2nd gen Compact Stock adapter ;-)

[@jasuhep]

Thanks! I also got the M2 Speed, it has a very similar feeling to the Nova Speed. The InnovaTAC gen1 adapters will work fine, but the gen2 will be a little nicer looking fit with the Comfortech 3 stock. They will be available very soon.

[@serguievb]

@@jasuhep Great. Will wait till gen2 comes out.

[@antonioj358]

Thanks a looot. I'm going to start with IPSC Practical Shotgun Manual (pump action). I already do IPSC pistol and mini-rifle (cal .22). I don't know what shotgun should buy (or avoid). My shooting club has areas about 25 meters long. Targets will be from 2 meters to a maximum of 15 meters. There is a proyect to construct new areas about 50 m but I don't know if shotguns will be allowed in the new areas. As I can see most people use Benelli Nova - supernova. There are 2 Benelli models Nova Tactical and Nova Slug that comes in 50 cm (20 inches) barrels (I'm writing from Spain). I don't know if those models can be competitive, having in mind the shooting areas (25 meters x 45 metros) and targets distance. Seems that those Tactical models don't allow chokes. Sure I'm wrong but 61 cm (24 inches) seems too long (Again having in mind the kind of stages that can be set in the shooting range I go). Or may be just it's a question of practice / training. I'm abosolute lost and, please, I need a little "enlightment". Thanks a lot.

[@jasuhep]

Thanks Antonio! Targets in IPSC shotgun competitions are mostly (90%) 8-15 meters away, when shooting birdshot. But sometimes closer or further, usually up to 25m. So you can train in 25m range, no problem. But it will be good to train also for longer distances. And of course slug up to 50m and further if possible. The Nova Speed is now the best choice for IPSC standard manual and ready out of the box. Every other shotgun will require a lot of extra parts and gunsmithing (and still won't be so fast). Recommended barrel length 24" or 26". Personally I do not recommend shorter barrel.

[@Kodreanu23]

Great video. Thank you!

[@ramanvirdi6061]

This shotgun 26 inch I have it it's huge this 26 inch looks equal to 32 inch barrel over under I loved reliable and smooth pump

[@zachb.6606]

Very cool, I've not yet seen these available in the US.

[@jasuhep]

Seems that the new Speed models are not yet listed in benelliusa.com , hopefully you get them soon

[@Synistercrayon]

I mean, I just have a regular ol nova, and at the price point, this shotgun can not be beat!!!

[@bioware9]

wow! so good!!!

[@sledzpio]

Dear Jaakko, great review. I already have Nova Speed. What I found - it shoots quite high. On 25m distance about 18cm above PoA with slugs with **** (IC) choke and already B-DX stock adjustment - any advice?

[@avocado9763]

Excellent presentation!

[@antonisdgr]

What do you recommend 24 or 26 for being more competitive;; thanks 😊

[@jasuhep]

Please watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXfGonqpndiqgKc

[@antonisdgr]

@Jaakko I already watched that's why I asked? I am 1.81cm 84kgr

[@jasuhep]

@@antonisdgr the answer was in the video :D . Both are competitive, the 24" is slightly more agile and 26" slightly easier to shoot. Depends on the stage which one can give advantage. You need to choose what fits your style and make a personal decision. I know I could personally shoot a little faster with the 26", but I have chosen to learn to work with the more snappy 24". So I gain a little time in handling and transitions, but shooting takes more effort than with a longer and heavier gun.

[@antonisdgr]

@@jasuhep thanks a lot 🙏 I wish you the best! Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷

[@yepyep1013]

Good vid!

[@Iiska78]

This video makes me think to get rid of my m2 sp and to buy nova speed instead :D :D Hyvä ja selkeä video *thumbs up*

[@phantomj7072]

Nice video. I'm just curious what other mag tubes are compatible with Nova Speed, because the original tube is too long to fit most of hard shell cases. And it's almost impossible to find the tube you mentioned in your video in Canada. Do you have any other options on mag tubes for this model? Thanks in advance.

[@jasuhep]

All Benelli extension tubes have the same thread. The extension tube nut (the red nut in Nova Speed) varies to model to model. But you can attach any Benelli tube to the nut. The Nova Speed thread is M3, so complete M3 tubes should also fit.

[@phantomj7072]

@@jasuhepThanks a ton! That makes my life a lot easier to just find tubes to attach on the original red nut instead of finding tube&nut sets, since M3 is prohibited in Canada which makes it nearly impossible to find.

[@curtisdowling3773]

Awesome!!! How much do they cost ?

[@Chuki1987]

Hello Jaakko, is the magazine tube thread diameter and pitch the same as on the Supernova or different?

[@jasuhep]

Thread is M3. So not compatible with M2 or Supernova threads.

[@Chuki1987]

@@jasuhep Okay, Thank you

[@raymondmichael3077]

One of those chokes appeared to be rifled. Is there a readily available rifled choke? If so, would it also fit a 90's vintage Benelli M1 Sport?

[@jasuhep]

Most likely a old M1 has a old standard Mobil choke. The new Benelli chokes are Crio Plus and are longer. The rifled Benelli Ampliator shown in the video is a special shot disperser choke.

[@pangniadek]

Hi, is it possible to shoot with the Benelli Nova Speed without releasing the trigger by just 'pumping'?

[@renewenus570]

Very Good Video, thumbs up. I have a question. How can i get these exploded drawings. I cant find it on benelliusa or benelli italy. I cant see no specific manual to the Nova Speed and in my Package was also only that Quick guide. Greetings

[@jasuhep]

You can find it on benelli.it, scroll down on the Nova Speed page and click ”download manual” . The page asks for email, but once the form is filled the manual can be downloaded benelli.it/en/arma/nova-speed

[@renewenus570]

@@jasuhep Thank you. I found it.

[@taywin43]

สวยมากครับ

[@SamSquids]

I have a cursed idea but I'm not sure if this is possible, but if I bought one, could I attach the SuperNova Tactical collapsible stock?

[@robertconyers6207]

My shell lifter doesn't lock down while loading shells and I've caught my finger many times. Is that a defect?

[@jasuhep]

If the action is unlocked (trigger has been pulled and forend can move), the lifter will not lock. The shotgun needs always to be cycled before a reload.

[@robertconyers6207]

Thank you for your reply. The shotgun is in the exact same mechanical condition as yours is featured at 8:00 minutes in the video. For some reason, the shell loader will not stay down. I brought it to the gun store from which I purchased it and we had approximately 10% success rate at pushing it down and it staying down. This makes loading very inconvenient. Here in Canada, all warranty claims are handled by Stoeger Canada and would take 4-6 weeks and also I would have to pay for shipping. Is there something I can do to troubleshoot the problem myself before having to submit a warranty claim?

[@jasuhep]

@@robertconyers6207 the lifter system is mechanically quite simple. If there is some issue in the detent mechanism, I would first suspect something disturbing the function of the spring loaded pin in the side of trigger group. That pin keeps the lifter down. You can DM me a picture / more detailed description in facebook/instagram.

[@jamesdriver8148]

Hi Jaakko, which do you recommend for a beginner to practical shotgun, the nova speed or the m2 speed?

[@jasuhep]

I have them both and either one is a good choice. But of course I personally like the Nova Speed better :)

[@jamesdriver8148]

Thanks Jaakko. I ordered the semi auto as it maybe more beginner friendly. Do you know when the Orlov performance telescopic extension tube will be back in stock?

[@ROBERTBUDA-RBMV]

😍👍

[@stefan_IPSC]

i am a left handed shooter, would i need to mill that cutout on the other side of the loading port or would i be able to use it as is?

[@georcantar]

if only supernova had a similar forend

[@pjhaines6620]

I'm just wondering why someone would choose the 24 inch barrel over the 26 inch barrel when doing so doesn't shorten the overall length since the magazine tube extends past the muzzle? Trying to decide between the two lengths myself, and don't know the pros and cons.

[@jasuhep]

I recommend to watch my video about shotgun weight and barrel length: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXfGonqpndiqgKc

[@antonioj358]

I forgot to mention I'm 1,72 tall and 70 kg weight. Thanks.

[@johnnyyclam]

How to decide between 24" vs 26" barrel length?

[@jasuhep]

By watching this video :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXfGonqpndiqgKc

[@johnnyyclam]

@@jasuhep Thank you Jaakko! I also found it shortly after watching your review video. I am mainly a IPSC handgun shooter trying to dip my foot into shotgun. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@MrTopSpeedy]

Noniin, nyt mä haluan tälläsen. Vielä ku niitä olis jossain 😅

[@gunnagunna8706]

which of the included chokes are best for slugs?

[@jasuhep]

Improved cylinder is likely the best from the included chokes.

[@joebob9292]

If i want to replace the red mag nut for a mag cap on the nova speed, is the thread compatible whit original nova/supernova magazine cap? Thx.

[@jasuhep]

The magazine tube thread in Nova Speed is Benelli M3, not compatible with old SuperNova/Nova.

[@joebob9292]

@@jasuhep wow why they did that, m3 magazine extension are almost nowhere to be found. It make the customization of the mag a nighmare and really expensive. Good job benelli!

[@jasuhep]

@@joebob9292 Nova Speed has some parts that are from the M3, like the fixed magazine tube. For the factory it makes a lot of sense. But it is good to know that all the Benelli orginal magazine extensions fit the (red) tube nut, so it is possible to fit the shotgun with shorter tube if needed. The 12 round tube comes with the set.

[@randomguy3034]

Speed and nova speed in the US when?

[@jasuhep]

Not sure what is the Benelli USA plan! I hope you get these soon too.
