Default RE: Benelli Super Black Eagle problem

I purchased mine in 1998 and had heard of similar problems. When I read my owners manual before I started to shoot it, I found that it stated something to the effect of, "To insure reliable feeding, make sure the first 100 rnds. through the gun are 1 1/4 oz. or heavier." That is not an exact quote, but it is close. In other words, run 100 high brass loads through it, then shoot what you want. That is exactly what I did and mine functioned flawlessly for over 15,000 rounds of 2 3/4, 3, and 3 1/2 inch shells.
