Default RE: Beretta vs. Bennelli

Danny 45 mentioned the cleaning issue, not me. Just for S&G' s one of the guys at our trap club wanted to see how long his 391 would go without cleaning before having a problem. He shot over 5000 rounds before jamming. At about 4000 it started to get a little sluggish on jacking in the next shell. I doubt that any hunter would shoot that many rounds in a season, much less without cleaning it. I wouldn' t say that cleaning it is much of an issue. After duck or goose hunting we always run a boresnake through it, take off the fore arm and run a lightly oiled rag over everything. 3 years and no problems yet. If you are in the middle of a sand storm, well that might be another issue. Have fun with either gun.
