I set one up for a guy at our range a few years back- the danged thing was WAY high and left for EVERYONE that shot it!
he phoned Benelli and was told exactly that "" it's within spec, it is your form "
I built him a shim/spacer that was close to .250 thick on the left side of it- problem solved.
but Lord it was UGLY!!

If it was the fit that was the problem each SB3 comes with a fitment kit so when its shouldered its pointed properly to fit the shooter.

There weren't enough shims in Alberta to fix that one!!!
With everything in the kit the edge of the pattern was still over a foot off at less than 40 yards.

Link doesn't work for me but neither does the link you get when you Google Randy Wakeman. Can you give a short synopsis of what the main issues are. Thanks.

I thought that too when i checked the link but if you scroll down when you get to Randys page it starts just after a longer "white space". Looks like many people as Cat and Elk have pointed out have suffered badly with the SB3.

I don't have this problem with my SB2, wonder what they changed to make it such a problem with the new gun?
That one I worked on was the only one that I saw
this problem with but I have only seen them shot at the range, I have not shot many at all myself ,I was not aware that it was a common problem .
