Any of those would be a good choice, but I'm an 870 man and think for the money they are hard to beat, It depends on what you like and the one that fits you the best.

I like my 870 , never owned a mossberg , and didn't care for the Benneli Nova .I have used all three and its really kind of a tossup in my opinion . Just a matter of personal preference .

I have an 870 and like the Benelli but my favorite turkey gun is my 3.5 inch 12 gauge Browning BPS.

When it comes to guns , picking the right gun is important to a person. As everyone owns something different and they are the best in the owners opinion, one should keep in mind the pro's and con's of the different makes and modles. Comferd is a point to one , and aswell as weight, something else one should think about is the action and how smooth it works. Noise is also in the same catagory, for the turkey hunter a fore arm that rattles can make for a short/unsuccessfull turkey hunt. Going to a dealer and going over the different guns out there maybe be a good idea. I have a 870 with a scope and it works great for me, but I would not say its the best for everyone. Pick out a gun that just suites you, keeping some important tips in mind...BT
