A freind has one, got it for his wife for her birthday, she got him a dimond tennis bracelet for his.
Well his is in 20 ga and it is a pleasure to shoot and carry.
I used it a few times ot shoot a dove or two and walking all over the country side looking for California quail the lite little gun is a pleasure to shoot.
Like all Benelli guns there is a 50 to 100 round break in.
Once you hit that fourth box any small problems like feeding go away and have not seen any come back.
Another friend was the benelli rep for a dozen years and I have broken in a few of the benellis for him getting ready for shooting events.

I have used a 20 gauge Montefeltro for the last two bird seasons.
Like it so much that I sold my 20 ga Yildiz O/U to maximize my Montefeltro time.
I hit more birds with the Montefeltro than I did with the O/U, mainly from having the 3rd shot.
(Used what I made off the O/U to buy a Benelli Supernova because I wanted some heavy artillary to compelement the Montefeltro.)


I like that it can be set up for a lefty; reversible safety, shims for adjustable comb and cast.
I chose it for the interia drive, but never had a gas gun so I can't say that is better; appears to be easier to clean.
Pretty wood.
