Title: new scattergun
Post by: 87Ford on May 29, 2010, 09:58:16 PM: Here's my new pheasant/quail gun. It's a Benelli Ultralight 12ga with 24" barrel.

This gun is SWEET. Only weighs 6 pounds. It'll be a pleasure to carry.

I went with the 24" barrel 'cause the inertia action on the Benelli is a little longer than the gas action on my 1187. So, the overall length of the Benelli with a 24" barrel is very close to my 1187 with a 26" barrel. I have always had Remington shotguns in the past. The Ultralight does seem to have a little more recoil, but it will be a joy to carry.
