Went to the range today to confirm my zero on my Benelli M1Super 90 Tactical. The new Fiocci Reduced Recoil 1oz slugs would not cycle, they shoot so soft (could be that I was on a bench w/sand bags though). Shots were very erratic, with an 18" to 24" group at 100 yards.
I am not satisified with the shooting session, to say the least. When I started cleaning the Benelli, I was scraping a HUGE ammount of lead with a tornado brush from the barrel in front of the chamber and before and through the choke (modified, IC choke is worse). I mean, chunks of lead. I have shot reduced recoil slugs through other shot guns, but never with this much residual lead.
Have any of you guys had the same type of problem in general shooting slugs? Or should I junk the Benelli and shoot next weekend's match with the Maverick 88? Thanks for your input in advance!
(BTW, I do love the Benelli!)
