SpeedBead Shotgun Sight
The SpeedBead™ System is the FastFire 3 with 8 MOA dot, and specially designed SpeedBead mount. It is available for a variety of shotguns. You can also purchase a SpeedBead Mount, without the FastFire 3 optic.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Turkeyslayerxxx from Does not fit Bought model 410684 that is supposed to fit the Browning Gold. It DOES NOT fit. I will have to order a new stock and cut it down for it to fit. That way i can keep my original stock intact. The top of the metal spacer goes on ok, but at the bottom where it is cut out for the spring tube, it will not slide over the stock creating a gap between receiver and stock that cannot be pulled up. Now i have to buy a stock that cost more than the mount just to be able to use the Fast Fire 3 i bought.

Rated 5 out of 5 by MAGA from Perfect turkey sight Easy mount to the 870. Worked perfectly until I broke the lens, no fault of Burris just abuse. Burris replaced it, no questions asked.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Russell from First Red Dot Scope I purchased the Burris FastFire III 8-MOA as my first red dot scope so I was unsure what to expect. What I found was that when mounted on a 223 rifle I am able to hit the target with very little accuracy. I think this is because I lack enough experience with this type scope. The dot covers the entire target and it difficult to aim consistently. It is my opinion that this type sight would work much better on a shotgun or use MOA of 2 or 3 for a rifle. I decided on the Burris scope because of the warranty "Every Burris optic is covered by the Burris Forever Warranty". How can you go wrong with a warranty like that? The scope is compact, lightweight, but the dot appears a bit fuzzy and it is difficult to use the combination off and brightness button. It isn't very sensitive and it takes several tries to get to work.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Alain from Failed from day 1 To start, the product , based on the description, was suppose to have Fastfire 3 red dot, but it came with a Fastfire 2. And it never worked. I even tried a different battery just to make sure. The store would not exchange it, saying I had to go through Burris warranty. They did offer to cancel my order and return the product, but I wanted to try it out. Luckily, it is winter and no hunting or range open at this time so I will wait to get it back.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Joe22 from Doesn't fit my SBEII Purchased a month ago and is headed back to Burris for the second time. The speed bead does not allow the Fastfire to adjust low enough on elevation. The wedge screw bottoms out on my gun, elevation adjusted all the way down and still point of impact is about 1' high. Was told I should look at shimming my $1,800 gun to work with the site.
Fastfire itself seems to function and adjust properly but I can't give fair review as of now.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Long Beard from Great sight; poor mount The recommended Speed Bead for the Benelli Super Nova does not fit that shotgun. I had to improvise with a drill and cutting tool. The Speed Bead for my Benelli SBE was perfect--the one for the Super Nova is very disappointing. Also, the screws for the mount are too short when a riser is utilized. Without a riser, I cannot make an accurate sighting. Aiming slightly above a target defeats the purpose of an adjustable Fast Fire.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Virginian_Spencer from Great I have had a Speedbead for about 7 years now. Works perfectly on my 1100, 11-87, and my 870. Soooo much better than the old Weaver Qwik-Point from years ago. Ran a straight at Skeet the first time I took it out. Thank you for making excellent products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Birdman from Works great Works really well but after shooting a little, it needs to be sighted in again. Helpful hints?

How do you replace the battery?
If the Speedbead system is using a Fastfire III the batter goes in the top of the sight in the battery compartment. For the Fastfire II, the unit needs to be removed, and the battery is accessed under the sight.

Hi, I have. Beretta A400 excel multi target high rib shotgun. On the Beretta website it says that the Burris sight will not fit all A400 shotguns. Can you please advise if the product will fit my shotgun and if so the code numbers for the products.John
It is hard to say due to there being so many different models. We recommend calling Benelli with your serial number in hand, and confirming that the stock and receiver match up the same as the original A400. If they do, they it should fit with little modification needed.

I just bought a speedbead and fast fire 3 for my Benelli super nova, I installed it and ran out of windage adjustment to the left what can I do to help more
This typically means the mount is slightly askew. We recommend ensuring the stock is torqued to spec, as this usually alleviates any flexing or moving.

Will it fit the Benelli M2 SP (Speed Performance) edition?
Hello,
As long as the stock and receiver have the same dimensions/tolerances it will fit. I highly recommend calling Benelli with your serial number in hand to determine this before purchasing.

I have two Fastfires now. Do you all make a mount for a Remington 870, 20 gauge? I was wanting to install one on my son's turkey gun. I know I can have it drilled and tapped for a mount, but prefer the lower mounting of the Speedbead.
