If you don't mind me asking, What did that particular 870 go for and where did you get it at? I've been thinking about getting myself a shotgun and Remington seems like a solid choice in that department.
This particular gun is sold exclusively through D1ck's Sporting Goods and GanderMountain. It's not listed on the Remington sight because it's not available anywhere else. It's basically the same gun as their SPS Shurshot Turkey model though, except my gun came with a ribbed barrel, a red dot scope (that I promptly took off and replaced with a Mueller 2-7x33 w/ illuminated circle dot reticle) and dipped in MOO as compared to APG. I've added in an Indian Creek .665 choke and plan to be shooting2.25oz 3.5" #6 Hevi loads.....it should do 200+ in a 10" circle at 40 yards, I'll know more after I pattern it this weekend with the new choke and loads. [8D] This specific model was on a great sale last week at D1ck'sfor $469 and had a $30 rebate at the time as well. I really think it's the best option out there for a turkey specific bang stick unless you want to spend some big $$$.

Matty,
Sweet! I have the slightly older less tactical looking version of that gun. I also have a new shock absorbing camcorder mount for it to film whatever hapless creature that finds itself in front of it.
Good thing that has a shock absorbing mount, I know mine kicks like a PO'd mule! You will have to bring that camera and maybe I can run it for you while we are teaming up. Can't wait!!
