    How light are you talking about? Out of the box I shot 25 rounds of 3" shells and followed that up with 25 rounds of 2-3/4"
    1-1/8oz. 3 dram. 1200 fps. Federal target loads. It fired and cycled all 50 rounds perfectly. I don't have the recoil reducer in it either.

    Shooting 50 shots is hardly a test. Most 3 1/2" guns of any make dont like 2 3/4" target loads at all, and i dont care what make or model you have. Some will some wont......

    I have read it will not cycle 2 3/4" shells with the recoil reducer in it. I do not know for sure because i have not installed the recoil reducer yet.

    Hey what threads did you use for buying the choke tubes. I want the same one but not sure which one to buy. If you can give me the info, I would greatly appreciate it. I have heard that you go with the Benelli or Beretta threads.

    I have shot almost 20 boxes of 3" and 3 1/2 other than one misfire, the gun has been flawless. I knocked down a 22 pd goose shooting Winchester Xpert 3 1/2 # 2 at 40-50 yards. I have not shot the 2 3/4 but will do so this summer
