RE: Benelli Super Black Eagle 2
Myself and five others did a side by side test with a SBE and a SBE II with ComforTech. We shot five different loads that ranged from 2 3/4" 1oz 3 1/4dram (1,290fps) to 3 1/2" 1 3/8 oz at 1,550fps. None of us noted any difference in perceived recoil between the two. Both guns had 28" barrels and had the same choke constrictions. Neither SBE cycled the 1oz loads consistently. All of the other loads cycled fine and both guns shot very good. As more people get the SBE II after owning the first SBE they are reporting the same findings as I experinced. The soft comb can help some with face slap which for them is less felt recoil. Otherwise, the ComforTech has more to do with marketing and gun sales than recoil reduction.
