Beretta AL391 Urika
1
Having trouble with my new Urika 2 in 20 ga. I will not eject 7/8 oz loads. Tried Winchester super x and Remington high velocity. Factory says it need to be broken in to work well. This pisses me off. I've run over 100 rounds through it one at a time because the damn thing won't spit them out. I've taken it all the way down and cleaned it twice. The tech dept at Beretta says it has to have 24 grams of powder to fully actuate. I'm not a rocket scientist, but doesn't different powders burn at different rates? I asked the tech dept what ammo they use to test with, and he didn't know. He guessed Federal. Dealer said run a couple of boxes of buckshot through it, that'll clean it out. WTF! Now they want me to buy $6 a box buckshot and run them through too. By the way, nobody is offering to provide me with these shells free of charge.
All I wanted was a nice 20ga for bird hunting all day that wouldn't punish my shoulder, and for my wife to occassionaly shoot as well. This is my first Beretta, and likely my last. Beretta, hope your reading this, but just in case, I'm sending it to your customer service email also.
