Benelli Vinci

[Ronsse610]

Looking into buying a Vinci in real tree edition, I've seen in it person, haven't shot it but my friend used it at the range the other day, when i saw it, it caught my eye, looks really good and seems to be comfy semi auto shooter. what are your guys opinion on this shotgun? the good the bad and should i buy one (looking into buying a semi auto) are there interchangeable chokes for the barrel?

Ive had mine for over a year now and love it. She fires and cycles smoothly, feels great, not a punishing firearm by any means. As far as the chokes, I use a Kicks Vortex for the Black Cloud loads during waterfowl season and a Carlson Turkey Choke during turkey season.

One thing I have noticed is that she tends to pattern a smidge high, but the Kicks choke helps that out and brings it down. The Carlson pattern stays high for me, but is much more consistent then the Crios that she comes with. I have heard and read though that it is a trait for Benelli's to pattern high a couple inches.

They're a nice piece.

I have one, and a SBE II. I can't say anything bad about it.

They do come with a threaded barrel for screw in chokes.
