Wondering if anyone has experience with shooting one. I own a 12ga Nova pump and its rugged and a good waterfowl gun.

I have shot their older semiauto rifle. It was pretty reliable, and OK as far as accuracy (1.5" at 100) with cheap factory ammo.

I was not really impressed.

I am a big fan or their shotguns, but their rifles leave me a bit cold.

In essence, its a chassis bolt gun with a bunch of shotgun style recoil reduction. With the Benelli name tag, it will be a bit more expensive than necessary. I don't think all that crap is needed for recoil reduction with standard rounds- but then I shoot much bigger without any recoil mitigation junk on the gun. Some will like its looks, others not (like me). My take, seeing one was it was overpriced for what you got.
