man, that thing is almost as fugly as the vinci! :dunno:  if i wanted to drop the cash on an expensive over/under i'd save up for something like a 686 or a citori.

Here is a link to a video from the 2015 SHOT show. Benelli 828U Over & Under Shotgun new at SHOT Show 2015   Pretty impressive gun if all the technology works as they say. I love shooting an O/U over a pointing dog but personally prefer shooting a smaller gauge gun. I wish I had the opportunity to hunt enough upland birds to justify the $3000! Right now I am only left with my memories of shooting a limit of ducks and pheasants in the same day.

Well, you already have a nice shotgun that i'm sure would shoot the same loads as that one... but you don't have a truck. It's a no brainer. Buy the truck and save some money for gas.

Buddy had a chance to shoot this gun at the shot show.  Said it was different concept but very nice shooting gun.  He thought this gun design would allow it to eat up a lot of ammo without issues.  Typically your hard core shooters get the 100k round guns or capable guns!  Blasers, Kreigoffs, etc.  this one might give them a run for the fraction of the cost.  $15k - $20k+ or $3k.  The $3k gun doesn't sound so bad.
Cut em!
It's not the shells!  It's the shooter!

ATM....just poking fun at the guys who love their benelli's until they go "click" in cold weather and fail to fire.  Seems it was more common on the earlier SBE's so maybe they fixed it.
