and i suspect it hasn't been broken in. all i know about this gun is it accepts the chokes tubes, it's inertia driven and it has a break in period. it will also be my first semi auto.
first off, what's THE cheapest way to break it in? ammo wise. i know it loves the heavy loads. whats the cheapest way to break the gun in and get some good ol shoulder abuse and totally stigmatize the shooting experience for the people i let shoot it when i take it out? im guessing some cheap sellier bellot good ol ridiculous 3" magnum buckshot would work or 3" black magic brenneke slugs, but maybe there's some 3" steel or bb/t shot type stuff that doesnt cost an arm and a leg i can spew out of it?
second off, who makes/sells aftermarket Stoeger 2000 parts? do the Bennelli m1 parts interchange or no? i want to keep this in field/waterfowl/skeet configuration, but I would love to have full stock w/ pistol grip and matching black forend, elastic shell holder for the stock and magazine extension laying around, just cause. money well spent in my opinion.
third, is this a good gun to learn semis on? when i get it, how should i go about learning to fieldstrip and diagnose issues?
this is a whole new world i havent been exposed to yet - waterfowl and turkey methods and ammo, semi auto maintenance and care....its prettty foreign to me.
