So I'm looking into buying a Benelli M2.
The use will be for Grouse hunting and rabbits in Norway.
Most shots are within 20yds as they suddenly takeoff when you get within 10m.
I now hunt with a Benelli Supernova with a 28'' barrel and i am looking into buying a lighter and shorter shotgun.
Want to have the shotgun as short as possible, but good for fast point and shoot shots.
I also walk a lot on skis and in the woods, that why I want to keep it short.
I will use the supernova for geese and waterfowl.
I have been looking at the M2 with a 24'' or a 21''.
I have only had the opertunity to try a M2 once, and that was two years ago.
I think it had a 24'' barrel, but I am not sure.
Is there any big difference in velocity and swing on the 24'' and 21'' barrels?
I am not able to try it here, I have to order the shotgun online.
I usually walk with 5 hours into camp on weekends and hunt with a big backpack for 12-15 hours a day on the weekend so length and weight is the third most important thing after reliability and shootability.
