Maybe it is something else?
The culprit is:
They don't rock nearly as much as I do!
j/k
I have yet to see a Benelli choke on the value packs from Walmart.
With all the traffic on this forum from our experienced shooters, I almost lead myself to believe that the Benellis were problematic.
However, my experiences have been the complete 180 of some of the horror stories.
Not all guns are created equal, and that goes from same model to same model. Perhaps all the Benelli shooters that I have PERSONALLY met and shot with, including myself were all fortunate enough to receive guns that run like clockwork.
I've also personally seen some of the "dead-nutz-reliable" acclaimed shotguns go down.
This forum probably has the most exhaustive plethora of shotgun samples in the world. Perhaps we should all meet up and run tens of thousands of rounds through each of our own samples.
BTW, if anyone cares to know what my setup is (not that anyone gives a rats-butt):
Benelli M1S90
side saddle (on tight)
five-shot buttcuff
standard stock
18.5" barrel
oversized safety, bolt handle, bolt release, yada yada yada...
So far so good. No malfunctions reported with any sort of ammunition, including the Walmart value stuff.
