@@reddawng43x91 I don’t shoot a nasty TriStar. I put 150-200 shells through my gun every week at the skeet range and it hasn’t ever failed to cycle or misfired. I’ve also hunted every day of the duck and/or dove season this year and it’s eaten all of those loads fine as well, with the exception of 1 Winchester Super X shell that didn’t go off.

Shooting my stoeger m3000. I’ve shot well into the thousands of shells through it. From light target loads to 3 in 00 buck for hogs. I take this gun on every hunt from dove to hogs. In the 2 and a half years I’ve owned it I’ve cleaned it maybe three times. The only issue I’ve ever had is when it gets really dirty it may not feed a shell every once and a while. I love this shot gun.

As a fellow Virginian, who just purchased this gun 6 months ago, you are right on when it comes to using the rem oil. I switched to a different oil and did not have any issues in the next 500 shots at the skeet range. I am not sure where you are in Virginia, but, I shoot at the Bull Run Shooting center in Manassas Va. Good luck this coming season!!!

I shoot the original Benelli super black eagle with an extended Briley Lt. Mod.choke.A tip I got from a gunsmith 40 years ago has been invaluable in cleaning.Use a cheap solvent like a spray can of break cleaner (use the extended nozzle to clean out the gunk,powder,etc that collets in fixed interiod action of gun) The dropped trigger assembly and other parts can be sprayed cleaned.The big advantage of a solvent like brake cleaner is it eats the gunk and dries on contact. THEN I apply a lite lubribration oil ...use your favorite. For the last 10 years all I shoot for duck and pheasant is Black Cloud 3 inch 1 1/4 oz. # 3s lol..sorry for the book!

No worries Sly! Those original SBEs are highly sought after I've heard. My IM choke is a Briley as well, great chokes too but that one just doesn't get broken out as much. Thanks for the tips, I will have to get some to try out. I liked Black Clouds a lot more when I shot them this year than when I'd used them in the past. Gotta say though I really liked the speed shoks a little more still

Thomas, on shell brands and loads I have found a couple of rules to follow. Find a load that works for you;then don't switch. I know you are on a "college" bugget but most importantly, if changing atleast Match Same Speed of desired load.The Black Cloud I use for Phez and Duck speed is 1450fps.I like 1 1/4 oz for ducks and phez and field loads of 1 1/8 for doves (lead when on private ground) Matching speeds =more consistent shooting.

Great video btw 👍! I will be using a franchi affinty 3.5. The gun feels great and I took it on a pheasant hunt early this year and it was fantastic. I will be using it for this years waterfowl season. I have patterned the gun with factory and my Carlson cremator mid range, and the cremator by far threw better patterns any shell I was using. Before I used my sbe1 which I love and still take my turkeys with. I use break free clp and it works great!

I currently own 4 Benellis all semi. And have probably owned 10 or more in my lifetime. Owned one of the SBE basically when they first came out. I now only use FP10 for lubricant. I scrub the internals of the gun down once a year with soapy hot water and lightly lube with FP10. This is most important when you hunt in sub freezing conditions like I do many times a year. Most lubricants including the oil that comes with the gun gel up in really cold conditions. I also buy and put a little choke tube grease on my tubes. Had one rust in once.

Benelli Vinci w/ 24" barrel and carlson long range super steel choke. It and federal blue box and premium #2's from rogers are a winning combo. I took a dive 2 years ago in some thick mud and had to use the gun as a crutch to get out, dunk it in the water a couple times to ckean the mud off, load it and emptied 3 shells into the bank. It didnt even flinch.

also about your oiling with rem oil ... the only time I had failure to feed was when I over lubed my m2 and it was cold out like 18 degrees or less. I quickly learned that inertia guns don't like a lot of oil ... oil then wipe it all off and the action will work just fine. thousands of rounds through my m2 and no negative effects from going light on the oil products.

I bought a 12 gauge and 20 gauge for my son and I to use this waterfowl season. Franchi does recommend putting 3-4 boxes of target loads through the Gun as a break in period. I found that my 12 gauge did fine with 2 boxes but my son’s 20 gauge took like an extra box before it would cycle without stove piping a shell. You said you basically started hunting with yours with very little problem cycling. I am going to break them down and clean them so I’m interested to see how dirty they will be. I also plan on using dryloks this year.

2nd waterfowl season on my affinity and use remoil to clean my gun but whipe it off and use Lucas gun oil to lubricate...I have over 600+ rounds through mine and have never had an issue whatsoever...no rust no paint durability problems and no misfire/loading problems!!

Number one i noticed when you threw your gun up you closed a eye keep both.open and focus on the bird and not aiming down barrel youll shoot way higher percentage. Oil attracts dust shoot the gun clean dont lube up.

I've tried keeping both eyes open and haven't had much luck with it. I may try to get used to doing it while shooting some clays this summer though. I appreciate the advice about the oil

I use an old Russian single shot 20 gauge in 3 inch for small sea ducks up to mallards and I shoot Kent fast steel. I have no need for a semi auto because I shoot at passing ducks on a river from my kayak. Ontario opened up cormorant season so hopefully I can fuck the populations up a bit over here lol it was a proposed limit of 25 a day

That sounds super cool and I'm jealous you get to take out some cowmmorants. There's so many places that need it down here. A single shot must make you really accurate. I know when I only have one shell in my gun I hit more often.

Okay number one, ill never buy a Beretta, benelli or any guns that are similar, or same company made shotguns, 2 my all time favorite shotguns are Brownings, and Winchester, one is most of their shotguns pump or semis are made for duck hunting, i love how the ribs are, and i love how light and mobile the guns thru swing is for bird hunting, i love my wicked wing choke tube, I bought it when it first came out paid about 100 bucks for it. Patterns amazing out of my Winchester SXP which I currently use for duck hunting its only for steel shot, also I only use long range chokes. I love having that super tight pattern exspecally for the late season divers when they have a lot of fat on them,it also is only for invector plus threading. I have never heard good from anyone with any other shotgun besides browning/Winchesters and im NOT saying that because I own that brand, im saying that from my 23 years of duck hunting I have went through a lot, and i mean a lot of shotguns also I have seen a lot of people bitch about them certain brand shotguns none of my Winchesters or brownings have let me down,Everyone has their own opinions, thats mine and im sticking with it. Also another brand I like is remigtion, not all their guns they make, but the 870 and 870 super mag is nice and so is some of their rifles. Video sucks dick
