Have you tried a PatternMaster choke with buckshot? I used a modified for years, but I have tightened my pattern a considerably using a PatternMaster. I LOVE buckshot and have killed quite a few deer using it, but I am mainly a rifle-man.

I owned a Montefeltro 20 ga several years ago, but I didn't keep it long. I shot a few rounds of skeet, but like you, I found someone that wanted it more than me. I used to be a hard core gun trader and have owned 9 Benellis including a couple of Sports, but the SBE that my son has is the first one ever in my safe. I have owned 13 Beretta O/U's, and my Dad keeps the one that I have now. It is a english stocked model Onyx. My Dad wants to buy or trade for it, but I am keeping this one. I still do some buying and selling, but I am more into Blaser rifles right now. At $2000-3000 per gun, I have my "play" money pretty well tied up.

My son found the SBE on Gunbroker, and it was a pretty good deal. We gave $780 shipped. Most are running at $900+/- for a black gun on the used market. My son's is a "newer" BenelliUSA camo model.
