Make sure you get the rifled barrel model. They came in both smooth and rifled barrels. I looked for over a year for one and ended up settling on a Mossberg 695. The 695 is a very good shooter but does nothavenear the smoothness and quality of the A-Bolt. Even the 695's are getting hard to find. Tar-Hunt makes a very nice slug gun.www.tarhunt.com/tarhunt/
