Hands down the youth 21 inch 870 Rem. 20 gauge...with Federal H W 7 , it's deadly with a Trulock non-ported 565 choke...Killed my second Boss bird with mine yesterday...what a gun...

I have a youth model 20 repurposed to a turkey killer for my daughter.  Trulock choke and Fed HW#7.  Deadly at 40.

I hunt a Weatherby SA-459 with a Trulock choke (I live near them, Sumtoy is aces as well) and Fed HW#7

My wife surprised me with a Stoeger 3020 that I'm falling in love with fast.
She even got me a Carlson long beard choke tube for, just haven't had the time off of work to do any pattern testing
it's not the harvest,it's the chase

I own two, a Rem 870 Express 26" and a Benelli Nova full camo 24".  Like them both.  The Remington is less expensive.  IMO either is a good choice.

Any one you want to put your hands on really. If it fits you, it'll be just fine. With all the choke options, I don't really see where ones better than another at this point. Sure everyone has their preferences but in the end, that's all it is. My 11-87 is good but no better than my 1300 really. Would love to have an sx3 but it is what it is. Get what you want and make sure it's a purchase you're satisfied with. If you're not happy with it, you'll not carry it anyway. Doesn't matter if it's a $50 or a $5000 gun. If you don't like it, it's just taking up another spot in the safe.

Any of you M2 haters looking to sell?
