Just bought my new Benelli lupo Walnut, think benelli nickname it the Timber Wolf.. purchased it in .308 and wondering does anyone else have one and what do they think, itching for my variation to be sorted but here in northern Ireland it's got ridiculous waiting times! Excited to stalk with it for the first time is an understatement 😅

The synthetic stock is a lovely gun also I really liked the soft comb.. must have took me a good hour or more to choose between the 2! In the end the palm swell and the feel of the checkering on the wood and the grey action swayed me.
 
Quite a striking looking rifle.
Again not what I intended to buy at all... I like traditional rifles and in the end i just could not pass it the photos do it no justice. I had a Tikka T3x on the table alongside the Beretta BRX1 (which was a total disappointment) the stock and feel of the Beretta is horrible. The 2 lupos were miles ahead of the other 2. The warranty is unmatched also! At £1400 it's alot of gun for the money!
 
I know the limited range/zoom of the Alpex doesn't do the rifle's long range capabilities justice. If I had the funds I'd go glass with a front mount Cheetah for closer work after dark. Maybe in the coming months, eh?
 
Lovely rifle choice. 25yr Anti corrosion warranty, 10yrs mechanical. Benelli innovation taking us to a choice other than a walnut stock and blued barrel. Synthetic for me, just because the butt of the walnut gun looks mahoosive, trap gun large. May be different in the flesh? Beautiful, modern firearm though.
