Strut_Buster Posted January 29, 2005 Report Share Posted January 29, 2005 I use mine for turkey hunting and IMO its the best pump availble on the market today. It perfect for rainy days and is very quick to point. I have a Black DU edition that i have had for 3-4 years now and its been a companion in the turkey woods along with the goose fields and duck pond. Great gun!

johnf Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Re: Benelli Nova Quality??? I have a nova in camo, and would have bought black if I had known how easy the camo scratches off. When I'm in the woods with it I spend more time trying not to scratch the pretty camo finish. It does look really good though. As far as the gun goes it has been flawless so far. I would however highly recomend the SVL boot pad for it. They are wanderfull and make a slug feel like low brass #6 shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Posted January 30, 2005 Report Share Posted January 30, 2005 Re: Benelli Nova Quality??? Its a decent gun as long as it shoots where you look. If it shoots high, low, left, or right, its worthless as a wingshooting gun. If your gun does not shoot straight, and you only want it for turkey or deer, its still useful as long as you install a set of sights or a scope mount with a red dot or scope.

slugshooter Posted February 1, 2005 Report Share Posted February 1, 2005 Re: Benelli Nova Quality??? I love my Nova, shoots straight, no problems, but yes, that camo does come off pretty easy which is disappointing given the quality of the gun. I love it, I plan on keeping it till it falls apart, then get another one, aww heck, I'll probably get another one just because. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modillo Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Re: Benelli Nova Quality??? buy it you wont be disapointed buy it most of them shoot straight. i own a nove in thew 12 ga 3 1/2'' mag. i yet to shoot the 3 1/2s out of mainly because i dont have any and i cant find a box of 20 any wear or i would shoot them. my suggestion is take the butt plug out it the gun and replace it with a boot. the plug is hard rubber and it will kick a bit but the take down and cleaning is very quick. the berral screw cap is the only tool you will need to take it apart , it just two pins that hold the gun to gether and it comes with a set of choke tubs but ...... DO NOT USE THE FULL CHOKE WITH STEEL SHOT!!!!! GO BUY A STEEL SHOT APPROVED CHOKE ..... comp n choke or something. the gun come with a red floresent front bead and has an alingment brass bead. mine is in the camo max 4. i used it to shoot my frist blue grouse last fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
