Van, to each his own as they say. I have shot the benelli SS as my son owns two (one wood, one black fiber). They both feel good to me but the black fiber shoots better to me. I have also shot the montrefelto and i liked it. They are expensive but you get what you pay for. We quit reloading so he isnt worring about the hulls hitting the ground. I prefer to shoot an over/under but i do see several benelli ss's on sporting clays courses i go too but i would say 85% of the people i see shoot over/unders. Bob.......
