I agree with the 870 express mag being the best best for an all around shotgun. I have used mine for turkey, dove, duck, geese, rabbits, tree-rats, deer, skeet, trap, etc....

I also have a winchester model 12 (my grandpa's), H&R 20 gauge single shot, and a remmington 11 LT 20 gauge.

The 870 is my all around goto gun.
