I am staying away from mossberg, that is what went to $hit on me already. The only other one I was considering was the Benelli nova's....


I use a Benelli Nova for turkey and it works great. I've pumped quite a few shells through it without any problems. Everything from turkeys to clay pigeons to an old water heater, never an issue. I bought it because Cabelas was out of 870's the day I went to buy a gun. The action seems to be a little smoother than the 870 but it weighs a little more but I like a little heavier gun.
