Benelli Nova 12 Gauge Shotgun Review
Sean @ Everything Hunting has reviewed the Benelli Nova 12 Gauge Shotgun
The Benelli Nova 12 gauge shoots up to 3 1/2″ shells and cycles smoothly and with little effort. The pump handle is not loud and sloppy like most other shotguns priced just below this one.
The gun is very comfortable to handle and priced in a range that even poor folk like me can afford it with a little saving. Academy Sports has the black matte 20 gauge for $329.99… I believe that I paid about $350 for my 12 gauge, in Realtree APG, at Bass Pro Shop last year.

Benelli SuperBlack Eagle II
Does anyone know the barrell accuracy of this gun?
And if there truly is less recoil? They say there is a 47% less recoil, but want to find out if that is fact before I buy it.
I have 6 of the Benelli Nova’s in different configurations, and 5 Remington 870’s and pretty much across the board, they (the Novas) seem to have less felt recoil than my Remingtons. Note, this assumes a shotgun you are trying fits you fairly well.
I don’t think that the measure of the recoil in either brand of gun has so much to do with anything less than the fit considering that x weight of gun with x load will yield x recoil….period.
That being said, the Nova does seem to soak up a bit more of the recoil than my Remington 870’s even though my 870’s are slightly heavier.
Chrome lined bores and overall more resistance to rust, I prefer my Novas over all, PLUS, I like their bolt design and the slide release feature.
