I have one with a polished barrel and a .655 Kicks GT and have taken about a dozen or so gobblers with it. It is a good shooting gun but has not held up well under the 3 1/2" heavy loads. It does well with 3" loads and doesn't break anything. I have switched to a 935, but this gun is on every trip as a back-up or a guest gun. Its a good gun for the money, but parts are hard to find.
