Well my friends let me shoot Mossbergs and the Browning I owned wouldn't come close to out shooting my 835.

But it all depends on what you want in a shotgun.  You want the better quality made gun then the Browning would be the better choice.  You want a shotgun that will shoot better than the Browning and still last probably most of your lifetime buy the Moss 835.  I sold my Browning if that will help you in your decision becasue I chose the latter.

Shoulder them both and see which one fits better.  I own both.  My BPS is more comfortable.  My 835 patterns better.

835 if your only hunting turkeys. If you plan on using it on other game the bps. I never cared for the way a bps loaded and unloaded. I don't like flipping it upside down to check the chamber. Tough to beat a mossy in the Spring.
