I'll tell you what is an absolute tackdriver. The new Ithaca Deerslayer III. I just went to a deer/turkey expo and bought one, shot it at 50, 100, 150, 200, and 235 yards and it was printing 3 inch groups out at 235 yards.. I know some people would complain about only getting 3 inch groups but thats amazing for a 12ga. at 235 yards. They retail for right around $1200 but they are definately worth every penny. If you go to Ithacagun.com they have a video of their tech's shooting it. Just a little input on trying to help make your decision
