k1llapanda Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I just got my open shotgun. Haven't had a chance to shoot it due to an Injury but this week I am feeling it will happen. It's a 21" Benelli m2 with xrail(26rd) and couple other mods. What ammo are u guys using? I am down to try a bunch of different ones but want to narrow it down while purchasing. I currently use federal cheap stuff in my 26" m2 set up for practical and Winchester hp deer slugs 1600fps with good luck. So I will try those. But let me know what u guys run. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximis228 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Remington Nitros or Winchester AA's 1325+. I normally run the 1350 stuff. The inertia system needs recoil to cycle. With that giant integrated unit hanging out front, a lot of recoil is soaked up. You need a heavier load to reliably cycle the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sschultz Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Mine will run anything with 1250 FPS or more. The AAs at 1250 work the best. Estates at 1250 will work in a pinch. With your gun being new you may have to try AA at 1300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sschultz Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Fiochi 7/8 slugs at 1300 work but the 1oz at 1200 wouldn't. I now stick to Federal TruBall at 1300 and they work and shoot great. just in case you needed to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
