[GSP for me]

I am new to turkey hunting and am thinnking of buying this shotgun to hunt with. Can anyone give me pros or cons before I do buy one . Thanks

Pros = its a Remington
Cons= 23" barrel/would rather have a 26"
I have one and love it

Everybody likes different things but I personally love the short barrels as the gun is easier to tote and manuever for shots in tight woods.

For this I am willing to give up better patterns.

I have hunted for over 12 years now with an 870 supermag with a 23 inch barrel and have killed birds at ranges beyond 50 yards and I do not believe that in a hunting situation I need better patterns.

Just bought another 870 and went with a 21 inch barrel that I am setting up for the pattern board and love the way that gun handles.

In my opinion you have a winner and could arque it is the ultimate turkey gun out there!

You might give up a LITTLE bit in patterns with a shorter barrel but I got the Remington with a 21 inch barrel and found that good chokes like PG, IC and jellyhead will still shoot very very good patterns despite a shorter barrel.

Ive got a couple different turkey guns and decided that the shorter barrel and shurshot stock was going to be my next move and I couldnt be happier.

Anybody want to sell one

Excellent choice! Love my Rem Super Mag with 23" barrel! Excellent shooter and toter! Large choice of excellent chokes available. Killed many turkeys with mine! Also have a fully rifled barrel set up with a scope and shoot sabot slugs and kill deer with it as well. I can hunt everything I hunt in MO with this 870!!! Did some trigger work on her and set it at a little over 3 lbs. Buy it and don't look back!!!

I have one now with a shurshot stock.  It's my favorite gun now.

I will mirror what others have said.  I love my 870 SM (23" barrel).  Mine is from the first production run that came with the original Advantage camo.  It can certainly do the job.

I have one in camo with shurshot stock, turns their toes up way out thar!!   

Benelli Nova or Supernova is a much better shooter for me with a .655 and shooting 3.5" #7 H-13

From what I hear, I would look at a Mossberg in 3.5" and a 28" barrel.

I will also agree with the other's comments on the the 870 SPS-T.  I have an earlier version, without the Sure Shot stock.  I put a recoil reduction Knoxx Camo Spec Ops stock on it and it works great for me.  It's a turkey killer. and it's a Remington.
