Montefeltro Likes/Dislikes?

14.25" LOP is the outer limit for me. The only two 14.25" LOP shotguns I've tried (and own) that work for me are the Browning 725 Citori and Affinity with the "medium" recoil pad. They work only during early season when it's shirt sleeve hunting weather. When it gets colder and I have to start layering, 14.25" is too long.

I bet the Monte will fit you just fine. I will measure mine again tonite.

My former gunsmith told me a longer LOP usually helps one’s shooting…he retired…terrific gunsmith…Eric Meitzner, Solon Springs, WI…something about the way u mount the gun that has a longer LOP…

If it's warm enough for short sleeve hunting, it is too hot to hunt with the dogs so I'm not going. Like I said, a midget could hunt with the Montefeltro. The Montefeltro has a very short length of pull. That is the complaint I have heard about the Montefeltro and Ethos. Tall guys have to add spacers. You need to try one, I think you will be surprised. And you can adjust shims for a perfect fit without a gunsmith. Benelli makes the best guns you can buy.
