Where did you find the deer season at? I’ve looked all over the internet. Everyone says unavailable.
It is shipping now.
I'm from Iowa we have the straight wall rules to I've had good luck with the power point for 450 bushmaster
Why you would go with anything but a 357 mag, 44 mag or a 45-70 is beyond me.
See: dnr.illinois.gov/content/dam/soi/en/web/dnr/hunting/documents/ilsingleshotrifle.pdf .
A full length forty five seventy case is not Legal southern part Of michigan. So you have to cut down case.
Come on man, secure the target on all 4 corners!
If you use less staples, you can save up to 28.5% on your car insurance.
🤣🤣🤣
@@RandyWakeman 🤣🤣🤣
@@RandyWakeman Yeah you gotta save them pennies in IL, with all the tax hikes coming. Sure is a "swell" form of mob rule government over there.

From Michigan I drive 3 hours north and hunt public land. I do it to use my 30-06 and to give them the finger. How smart is it to have a guy on public land with a 30-06. I do however know the area I hunt very well. My grandparents lived two plots down for years that's where I spent a lot of time.
If IL would allow the 30-30 win, they would say, you could only use it if you stand on one foot, and one hand behind your back, usinging your non dominate eye.
www.chuckhawks.com/Winchester400LegendorLoser.html
Something like the .360 Buckhammer. I would like to see more rifles and loads.
Seems like cartridge companies are trying to reinvent the caliber wheel.
I was in the market for an m2 20ga, but opted for an older one. I prefer the higher quality comfort tech. Stock option. I was fortunate to find a traded in as new gun recently.
I'm with you.
She’s a beaut! Look at that wood! Weatherby quality for sure!
Weatherby is doing a lot of things right: the 18i 20 gauge is a good example.
Randy, I appreciate the rescue work you do with shotguns.
The best Weatherby Sorix review on the web! Great detail about the design, manufacturing history, and build. And not to mention the actual cycling under various loads. Perfect! Well done Randy.
I just read your article about them on ChuckHawks - I noticed you mentioned in the beginning of it that they typically manufacture toy/replica guns. I learned my lesson the hard way to not purchase an actual firearm from toy gun manufacturers. I bought a Walther WMP a few months ago (made by Umarex NOT Walther), and it has been an absolute disaster. The only gun I have ever truly regretted buying and have had non stop issues with.
I just bought the browning cynergy after hunting this season and was stuck on that and a beretta, but that cynergy just fit me better and I liked the synthetic stock cause I’m hard on guns and hunt a lot, but I did just pick up an older fabarm competition lion over under in 20 and haven’t gotten it out to shot clays yet so both are giving me some hope that I’ll have a good year hunting! Plus not a lot of people do reviews on fabarm
My mom works there her name is Tina
It is a beautiful spot.
Anybody know the difference between the workhorse and the wheelybird?
www.championtarget.com/clays-and-throwers/electronic/workhorse-electronic-trap/CH-40916.html
I converted my 700 MLS over to 209 setup about 4 years ago (2020) after watching this exact video. I am glad and have never wanted to go back to the old Remington Ignition Disks.
No practical advantage? Why settle for the 350 legend when for only a few lbs of recoil you can get 20-30% more mv/energy. I've been using the 350 legend and will be upgrading to the 400 this year.
You cannot kill a deer much past dead.
@@RandyWakeman You're right. Some calibers get deer there faster though.
Picked up the Weatherby Orion SxS, last year. I've been super impressed for a "budget" side by side. It shoots straight and seems like it'll be reliable in the field.
Great review!
Thanks!
Looks like a dandy all around shotgun in 20 gauge 3 inch capable especially using TSS shot shell loads.
Would you still buy one of these today, assuming good condition? Seems like buying any other used gun with Remington being what it is..
I would not.
My same thoughts. Thanks for the reply.
great work Randy. when I had a new spring that was stiff I just lock the bolt back for a week. works on rifles and pistols. cheaper the shooting it to break it in
Love your presentation. The Benelli is a hunting gun and that is a great tip. I have four Benellis.
Good point on the 50 yard group but the 2" 200 yard would be definitely worth it
Randy I just bought one of these to get into skeet and trap shooting, I want to get into some competitions I must admit at only 23 I am unable to afford anything better like a browning or beretta, do you think this one will be a good entry for me to get into competitions? I know it’s not the latest and greatest O/U but am hoping I can learn good techniques until I’m able to afford a higher quality shotgun.
Yes. The Orion Sporting is more of a clays model: weatherby.com/store/orion-sporting/ .
@@RandyWakeman yeah I was eyeing it but just couldn’t find one for under $1,000 I was able to get the regular Orion for $855
I have the new m2 20 gauge and the bolt will bounce if I shake the gun, but it’s been 100% reliable
When it becomes a problem, you know what to try.
Where did you get the xp I can’t find them anywhere
Olin ships regularly.
What’s the total choke constriction for the 10/10
randywakeman.com/FabarmChokeConstrcictions.htm
The constrictions for the 20 gauge and 12 gauge are the same ?
They do not offer a 10/10 in 20 gauge.
At 8 % Tin the shot is getting close to Steel shot response to choking !!!
You might mean antimony.
Yes
Awesome review and thanks for bringing up the point about the 30-30. I would bet they got paid to create the straight wall cartridge designations and are paid to keep it that way. A lot of corporate/government money in it. I think these straight wall ar15 cartridges that headspace off the case mouth are downright dangerous. If the mouth is crimped too much, it could possibly enter the rifling and get pinched causing a massive grenade style pressure spike. I'm pretty sure i had that happen years ago on a 45 acp case... 20,000 psi didn't do anything but wreck the mag follower and scratch my forearm up... 50,000 psi or whatever those rifle cartridges are is going to be a different story.
The problem, at the moment, with the 400 Legend is that only two hunting loads are available-- and only one has any published ballistics. Whatever your rifle is, if it doesn't like one of those two loads, you are out of luck. The 350 Legend has well over 20 loads readily available.
I did that in both my 12 gauge and 20 gauge Montefeltros. Works great!
How many game birds have lived to see another day because of the Benelli click?
❤️🩹😆😆❤️🩹
Great information for correcting the "click" issue. Now if they can just corrected the SBE shooting high and left issue.
Benelli told me they have no interest.
@@RandyWakeman I can believe that!
Find them nice
Hello, I use composite, but my piston has polymer and yours does not. Also, how can I tell if my piston is in its new and updated state? I do not have the shiny chrome bracelet, only yellow color and polymer black rubber.Also, what is the part you call the action bar? My jar pipe?
Travis is here: www.travismears.com/ .
Glad I found this video. I purchased one of these rifles when they first came out. It has been a great rifle and have taken quite a few game animals over the years. You have done a good job of covering many issues that are so important. Thanks.
Looks like a good deal, for an affordable accurate clays gun. w Which is exactly what I was looking for, after the expensive 1301 tac mod 2, for HD. As long as it cycles reliably, and lasts, I'm in!
That comb riser going over the butt, looks like it's designer had their head, up it !
Any idea if they plan to produce a walnut version?
No. The walnut is the 18i. weatherby.com/shotguns/18i/
I see. Are they essentially the same gun otherwise? Same inertia action, cip proofed, etc.
Yes, both made by Marocchi.
I don’t the Fabarm chokes on their website.

I can’t agree with you on the safety position. I really hate safeties behind the trigger, and much prefer them in front. Also the trigger guard is oversized to allow for use by a gloved hand in cold weather.
I've finally found the perfect bullet for my cva .45 paramount for whitetails the 275 gn black max performs beautifully out too 400 yds with a 110 gn weight blackhorn 209 large rifle magnum primers bullet to bore
Dynamite video Randy. Thanks. Glad I found your channel.
Thanks Randy. Great field review. Commentary and shooting action from a very experienced gunner. No crap music. No super opinionated 'in yo face' pointing at the camera and other juvenile drama. No bubba bs.
I just got mine i love it.
Are the ribs steel?
Yes.
Notice it doesnt eject unspent shells. I thought that was cool
Good review I am personally disappointed in this new release when I played with one at the nwtf convention it felt cheap compared to my older m2 I personally feel benelli is missing the mark don’t get me wrong I love my m2 And I am just a dedicated turkey hunter but for $1300 bucks doesn’t come drilled and tapped no over size bolt release and having to buy a spring from wolf or taran tactical to eliminate the click
They of course want you to spend the extrs scratch on an SBE3 0).
