Help me decide on a 20

I love my M2 but I want another one, thinking of a berretta, any of you guys have this gun?

I bought the a400 lite synthetic last year and love it. It has the recoil spring around the magazine and is about the same weight as my M2. My M2 is my turkey gun and I shoot the a400 at ducks, dove and pheasant. The a400 is easier to load so for volume shooting I prefer the a400. Both are great guns but if you want something different than the M2 I strongly recommend the a400 lite.

I have both the X3 long beard and the Weatherby Sa459 in 20ga.  Both shoot handloaded TSS very well. Have hunted and killed with both. But I like the Sa459 over the x3. Lighter, holds better and was 1/2 the cost of the X3.

Mossberg SA 20 turkey! This gun fits all your criteria . The gun is the lightest of the three 20 gauge set ups that I have, it comes with a rail to add optics is drilled and tapped and will flat out shoot! I use a Carlsons 575 non ported turkey choke with Federal TSS #9 . The gun has been the demise of several gobblers. Good luck on your next 20 no matter which you choose!

Get the Stoeger M3020 26" bbl. it comes in black MPN:31823 or Mossy Oak Bottomland MPN:31847. If you put the time in to look for either of these guns the black can be had @ $499 B4 transfer fees & shipping. And the MO Bottomland can be had @ $549 B4 transfer fee & shipping. Alot of times if you really do your homework you can get online sights to match each others deals on price AND shipping. Good luck !!!

I really like the Remington 11-87 compact, purchased one for my kids to use, had it drilled and tapped mounted a red dot, it is a joy to carry compared to a full size 12. We are using a IC .570 choke with Apex small town blends.

Another one to look at is the Mossberg SA-20. It is basically the same gun as the Weatherby SA-08, but $50-$100 cheaper. I bought the wife a Youth Bantam a couple of years ago and I'm going to have one for myself by next spring. It has a 24" barrel, but is not drilled & tapped. They also make a Turkey model that has a 22" barrel and appears to be drilled & tapped.
