- Benelli M2 20ga. Barrel and Forcing Cone Modified. Trigger job and trigger shoe. Cerakote and camo dip. Comp-N-Choke .565 turkey choke. Remington Premiere TSS #7 shot.
- Zábava
I found a surplus of 870 Wing master police guns, installed 21" rifle sight Remchoke barrels and made some fine turkey guns out of them.
Browning already built it. Cynergy Ultimate Turkey😂😂😂. Nice build
That bronco is clean!
Good looking turkey slayer and performance, win win!
Beautiful setup 👍, thanks for sharing 🦃
Thanks for watching!
My friend you have a sweet rig!
That's a nice looking turkey gun. I've decided to go with a cheap over/ under so that I can run #9TSS/ tight choke in 1 barrel and a modified choke and generic #6 lead in the 2nd barrel for anything under 25 yards.
Having never actually killed a bird with the 3rd round in the mag in over 43 years of turkey hunting, I decided I'd rather be able to select different barrels based on circumstances and distance.
Also, at $10 per shell, it would be nice to save the TSS for when it was really needed.
#7
Yes sir been killing for ten years all some for kids
Nice looking gun. I would add the youth stock and drill/tap with Sumtoy mount. It will get you more shot opportunities sitting down.
I have comp in chokes on all my guns twenties 2812 some people are missing out these are really good chokes
I've known of Rob's work for many years and he's the best when it comes to turkey setups. I currently shoot a single barrel 20 gauge in a Thompson Encore with custom work by Rob's crew. I prefer number 9 shot because of the incredible patterns. Plus, the nines are strong at those misjudged yardages. I do shoot custom loads. There is something about a breech gun that I prefer, guess it's the quiet loading and unloading. Would love to shoot an over and under but can't figure out how to use a red dot sight, which is a must.
I shoot an O/U with a meadow creek rib mount with a red dot. It’s sweet. Sumtoy also makes rib mount that you get drilled and tapped on
ATI just released an o/u with selectable barrels, full camo - called the Turkey/Fowl
I also appreciate quiet loading and unloading. This really hit home for me one turkey hunt when we had to loudly load our semi-autos a mile from the blind, then walk through thick undergrowth in the dark with loaded shotguns. Not the safest situation…
That’s one great looking rig ! I always wondered about the speed bead being to close but I guess when you shoulder the gun it’s not.
It seems to be designed well. Hope this was helpful. Thanks for watching!
i like the gun and choke combo...them shells need to go. That gun has much more potential.
I figured the red dot being there would allow you to still shoot with your beed if the red dot died or quit working! The possibility is low but malfunctions do happen!
Excellent point.
Good pattern dog ..
Noticed the grounded logo on your hat.
Bronco!! 👍🏼
Would you share who cut the barrel for you. I saw you said local. I may live close to you. I just bought a Stoeger with 28” barrel and want to have it cut. Thank you
I use the Remington TSS. Cheaper and shoots just as well as any other manufacturer.
That combo is a hammer with #7 tss and will sure hit hard,have you tried #9 in it yet👍
I have a 20 gauge M2 that I use for upland hunting and I love it. However I’ve been leery of using an inertia action gun for turkey hunting, since it has to be slammed into battery to avoid the “Benelli click,” and can easily be bumped out of battery. Have you ever experienced this?
I sure have. It’s become such a habit for me to constantly check for that during the hunt. It hasn’t happened to me in years, but that one time it did, I was miserable.
It's a good setup ,but in my opinion not the best turkey setup...glad you like the gun....
What was the total cost of this set up including all the work done to it, the choke, sights, sling, & whatever else you may have added to the gun? I'm not questioning that it's a nice gun. If I wanted the "ultimate turkey gun", it would be nice to know the total cost of this set up.
Adjust a couple clicks to the left. Nice gun
The last couple of years before Remington went bankrupt I wasn't happy with their waterfowl loads. Seemed like the quality control was off, misfires and poor performance on their steel shot loads. Maybe they are doing it right again. Great pattern and nice little turkey gun for sure.
How left handed friendly is it. ?
Who shorten the barrel ?
Sweet
Cerakote on metal and stock and forearm?
How long did u cut the barrel to? Great looking gun with the cerakote receiver and barrel
23
20-24” seems to be that sweet spot!!
I bought that exact setup but for some reason it will not pickup the third shell from the magazine . Any thoughts? Thanks
Not sure. I've not had that issue. I would have a gunsmith take a look. Maybe some other folks that know of that issue will chime in. Thanks for watching!
You guys are all missing out these compn chokes are great
What thread pattern were you able to get installed for chokes. I’m assuming not factory Benelli.
No not factory unfortunately. On the benellis they will put in thin wall choke threads. (TruChoke). Choke company’s producing those threads are limited.
Did you have rob Roberts ream out forcing cone and polish? Did you try one robs’ chokes? If not, why?
Sure did. Highly reccomend!
Rob doesn't currently make a choke tube for the thread pattern required when you cut down into the thin part of a 20 ga benelli. Or else I would have! Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel!
Probably should have gone with a good Ole American optic ready Mossberg
So I just bought my 2nd M2. I'm gonna send it to Rob Roberts to get it dipped and drilled and tapped. Do you personally believe it is worth the money to get the forcing cone lengthened??? I'm really considering it just getting your 2 cents
I would recommend it. It made a positive impact for my gun.
Did Rob cut your barrel? What length did you cut it to? Thanks.
YOU WANT A REPLY AFTER ONLY 10 MONTHS!! EVEN THOUGH HE SAID HE WOULD GET BACK TO US ON THE LENGTH SPEAKS WITH FORKED TONGUE!!!
What color is that cerakote from rob Roberts?
I believe it to be patriot brown
Did rob Roberts cut the barrel down or someone else?
Had a local gunsmith do that for me.
Well I shoot a franchi affinity 20 with turlock 560, copyed DaveOwen. Now he's gone to a benelli...what's a guy supposed to do!
What model is your Bronco??? Thats Awesome
1996! Thank You very much.
Why didn’t you just go with a 20ga ultra light 24in?
6:15
Who did you have cut the barrel?
I had Mike Orlen in Amherst MA do a barrel for me. Extremely fast turn around. Known worldwide for cutting chokes in guns other ‘smiths can’t.
Whats the barrel length?
23"
I built a custom single shot for my turkey gun a few years ago. I like a light short gun for the steep and thick stuff I hunt but nice gun
I agree! I did the same thing. I bought a Stevens single shot before they made the Turkey Model and basically built their turkey model 3yrs before Stevens offered the turkey model. Put red dot mount with bottomland dipped stocks, turkey choke. It’s probably my favorite turkey gun out of about 6 or so.
Bro you got to get them federal my guy they have been on the cut edge of turkey shells early 80's
Federal > Remington
@@-B_G- never federal only make bullets all there time go in to just the bullet they have all ways been a head. Wait a minute I give you some federal my be you can hunt with a real bullet 👉🤟💯✌️🙏
@@longbeard6834 - NO SHIT I was AGREEING with you Federal is greater than Remington aka Federal > Remington!! Are you so dumb that you don’t know “greater than less than” symbols my guy?! Ppl IQ these days matches their shoe size. 🤦♂️
@@longbeard6834 -Also shotgun shells are not “bullets” they are Cartridges/shells son.
@@-B_G- that is all you can come up with pardon me let me properly offer you some cartridges for your shotgun you would still end up with some real bullet just trying to help your one of those umm killed my first in 1987 at 6 start traveling at 11. Three to seven state a year how many shoe box you got that what I thought bye Felicia 👉👍🤟✌️🙏
What length was the barrel cut to??? Why didn't you just say it in the video... Also, you're supposed to shoot red dot sights with both eyes open so the "field of view through the glass" shouldn't be an issue.
Not if your left eye dominant, like many are. You can try to dismantle my point I made if you want, but it would be a waste of time. This system works perfectly. The barrel was cut to 18 1/2”.
@@TheNaturalCalling Why would eye dominance matter? Regardless of what eye is looking through the optic, if the other eye is open and you're target focused, the window size doesn't matter as much.
Thanks for answering my question about the barrel length, I'm trying to decide between 20" and 22", was worried maybe 20" is too short, but apparently now if you're using 18.5".
@@matthewthompson6357 my left eye will not allow my right eye to focus on the dot or the target if my left eye is open. Everything about this setup was thought out and intentional. Even if I wasn’t left eye dominant, There is no benefit for me to mount the sight further away from me…. None. On your barrel length, be fare warned that many gun techs will say you lose too much velocity if you go shorter than 20. That’s partly the reason I didn’t broadcast my barrel length decision. I have not had one single issue reguarding lethality. My velocity dropped about 75 fps. I’m still over 1k. But just be advised. Happy hunting.
🤷🧐#7 all way easier to pattern 👍
#9 is far better.
Man you talked about it you know we going to ask what’s the barrel length
Looks like a 22in barrel.
@@-B_G- correct!
You just couldn’t bring yourself to TELL EVERYONE what the barrel length is?
Tell people to post a question to get the answer. I bailed after that.
Detail that would’ve taken you 1/2 second to mention.
Wanting to fool that algorithm by having people post to find out basic info is just frigging cheesy.
I love it!
