Our Assessment: The Benelli Super Sport in 12 gauge is a high-performance shotgun designed for sporting clays and other competition shooting. It features a 30-inch ported barrel, which helps reduce muzzle jump and manage recoil, allowing for faster target acquisition and quicker follow-up shots. The barrel is threaded for Benelli Crio chokes, which use cryogenic treatment to improve shot patterns and performance, particularly in competitive environments. This shotgun includes a full set of chokes and even a few specialty chokes making it ready for just about anything right out of the box.  This particular model is also enhanced with Briley upgrades, which include an upgraded charging handle, bolt release, and safety. These components provide a smoother and more responsive feel, giving the shooter better control and faster manipulations during competition. The weighted nose cap is another Briley addition, designed to improve the overall balance of the shotgun. By shifting the weight distribution slightly forward, the nose cap allows for steadier swings and smoother tracking of moving targets. Benelli’s Inertia-Driven system is a key feature of the Super Sport, offering reliable cycling of various loads without the need for adjustments. Combined with the ergonomic and durable carbon fiber synthetic stock, the Super Sport is an excellent choice for competitive shooters looking for speed, reliability, and enhanced handling. The Briley upgrades further enhance its competitive edge, making this shotgun a top performer in the field. Please see our high quality photos via the link and best of luck with your bidding!!!-R.L.
