Picked up this bad boy last week. Where is the best place in BR to buy shotgun shells by the case?

Mine used to be Wal-Mart, then checkout in the auto department, but they have caught onto my scheme.

I may just be a vagina. But that gun killed my shoulder during duck season. And I didn't see that many ducks. Got it for a Christmas present.

I buy mine online, generally from NSS https://www.natchezss.com/

Limbsaver makes a great tampon for those that need it
All kidding aside I put a limbsaver recoil pad on my SBEII and the difference was night and day. You can either go that route or stop being a wuss

Welcome to the club, I own two Franchi's. An older A model my Pow Pow gave me and a new I version I bought a few years ago.

And I have been shooting a different model Franchi (with the inertia drive) for years with no shoulder vagina-ness

Rogers also has some pretty good deals if you keep an eye out.

This one has the Inertia Drive. It's made in the same factory as the Benellis. The only difference is that the recoil spring in the Affinity is in the foregrip and not the stock, like the Benellis.

My buddy has a franchi o/u and I love it. That's his next gun, I've only heard good stuff about em. I wouldn't mind one but I'm saving for the new browning cynergy synthetic/silver o/u.

And the Franchi is about a $500 bill cheaper than the benelli equivalent with the same warranty I believe

Not saying the Franchi Affinity isn't a good shotgun (I try not to recommend, or criticize, firearms that I haven't personally shot extensively) ................. but I will say that the NRA awards are are a self-serving kickback to their major advertisers.
You'll never see an NRA review that criticizes a firearm in their print or online magazines, and you'll rarely (if ever) see a gun reviewed if the manufacturer doesn't advertise in the NRA publication. (This practice isn't confined to the NRA rags -- it's common in almost all gunrags).

Cheaper, but not the same gun. The Franchi's represent a bargain for inertia guns.

Yeah, gun reviews in most magazines are almost worthless.

I don't want the blame to be put solely on my shoulders.
