Take a look at the Beretta 390's. Wal Mart has these in a black matte/composite with a 28" barrel for about $525. I've had one fora whileand use it for grouse/woodcock, pheasant, ducks, turkeys, deer, skeet, trap, an sporting clays. Very reliable, soft shooting, and easy to clean. Have thousands of rounds through mine, and has never, ever failed.
