A good wing shooting shotgun should fit you well. You should be able to bring it up and put it on target effortlessly. If you have to stuggle to find the bead, it's not going to work for you. Stock length, and drop are important. Since people are different, a gun that will fit one guy, will not work for another. You really should go out and try different guns to see how they'll fit you.Every one of those shotguns will fit somebody,not necessarily you.

My vote would be the Winchester Super X3. It comes up and shoulders nicer for me than some of the nicer O/U's I've shot. Great gun for the money, so far I've put over 500 rounds through mine with out a single jam. Seems to be very dependable.

Wingbone hit the nail on the head though, make sure if fits you, even if you buy one that isn't necessarily "your brand", fit is everything! I went to the shop to buy a Browning Gold, but just couldn't put down the Super X3.

Good luck.

I bought a Benelli Super Black Eagle a few years back to use for Ducks & Turkey's.
Since purchasing this shotgun I decided to retire my Browning Upland Special O/U 12 ga. ...
I love the Benelli this much!!!
I know it's a little more than you posted, but it may be the last shotgun you'll ever buy???
Trust me, take a look at it!

Lastly, as long as it fits like a glove to you, then any gun is a great buy.
