benelli m1 20ga

[Turkinator]

Any opinions on a benelli m1 20ga? Found a used camo with 26in barrel for 800$

Great gun! Mine likes 1-13/16 oz T9.

[ICDEDTURKES]

Great gun sounds like a good price.. I have a friend that bought two M1 20s when they were discontinued they were closed out for 750.. Funny thing his are M1s not M2 Americans and they have Crio Chokes.

We have one, and it will stay in this family, to the grave!

What choke do they seem to like with tss9

I bet they were mid year change over guns and only had the crio barrels left in stock to make complete guns.


I love my M2 20ga

uses 2 different tubes

Indian Creeks in .555 and .562

TSS does well with both
Hevishot likes the .555
Fed HW7 does well with the .562

I shoot factory full

Bump. Just bought a M1 Super 90 20 ga. Gonna start with a trulock 565 ext non ported. Any other suggestions? Looking for around a 60-40 pattern in the 10"-20" at 40 yards with TSS 9.5s.

The Indian Creek .562 throws good pattern in my M2 with the 1 5/8oz load. Probably work similar in you M1 even with different threads.
.555 would probably put up crazy numbers with the 9.5's.

This is what I use in my M2
If my grand Daughter is shooting (562)
555 if I'm up.

I have a M1 and M2. M1 with rhino .575 TSS 9's in 10" circle 325/130. M2 Factoy full in 10" circle with TSS 9's 275/180. M2 with Indian Creek .555 in 10" circle with TSS 9'S was around 190, didn't count what was in the 20" on the shots with the IC choke. I prefer the M1 HANDS DOWN TO THE M2!!!

[britton40]

M1 with rhino .575 TSS 9's in 10" circle 325/130

Wow. Strong.

[01Foreman400]

M2 with Indian Creek .555 in 10" circle with TSS 9'S was around 190

That combo should be putting up 290's-300's with a 1 5/8 oz. load?

[britton40]

Do you have to use the 2 3/4" load in the M1?

[01Foreman400]

Do you have to use the 2 3/4" load in the M1?

That's what was recommended to me. I know guys that shoot the 3" and have problems and a couple that don't have any issues. I didn't see the reason to chance it. The 2 3/4" loads do great.

Thats what i thought but, it would never get any better. I sold the choke, it's not any better in the other gun....

Call Indian creek and tell them you are shooting tss and they will send you the choke. I had a .555 but the one they sent me after I mentioned tss shoots better.

What did they send you?

[britton40]

I shot the 565 non ported trulock, 570 ported pure gold, and a 575 Carlson's. The pure gold had the hottest core. I settled on the 575 Carlson's ext non ported.
