What's the best 20 gauge out there? I want to get a dedicated turkey gun. I have decided against the Winchester and am now looking at Benelli or Ithaca. Any ideas or suggestions?

Remington 870 Compact w/21" barrel. It comes with several plates that can be added to or removed from the stock for proper length of pull so that it fits a youth or an adult.:OGturkeyhead:

Get the youth 870 with the 21 inch barrel...

As far as best quality?   I'd find a rem 870 wingmaster, find a barrel length of your choice, camo it up and be done with it

I'll say Ithaca, but I'm partial. I've been carrying one for 35 years.

As far as patterns go, some of the models with invector+ barrels may have the best overall evenness in patterns .
However, many other guns have very capable patterns for hunting purposes and not necessarily the most expensive.

The Browning is heavier than the Rem 870 or Mossy 500 and I will normally take my 26" 870 first then 24 " Mossberg before taking the Browning. The 21" Rem 870 is just a super all around carry gun with more than ample patterns with several chokes and their chokes are everywhere.

How it feels and looks to you is another important consideration just like a putter to a golfer.

Loving my Mossberg 500

Another vote for Mossberg®. I love my 26" barrel Mdl 500C 20ga pump. Got my last gobbler (Merriams) at 42yds with #4 Pb. I got this gun in 2000 and have never had any malfuntion(s). Built like a tank and runs like a Timex® watch.
