I have used either a 870 or 1100 for years BUT.... I got a Browning BPS 10ga, not this past summer but the summer before to use on deer sometimes and for mostly one geese.... but I have playing around with some turkey loads in it and I think I am going to have to try it out this spring.. It has a 28" barrel with a xtra full choke in it, I am going to try a few of the aftermarket chokes in it but this set up is awsome.... it is hell on paper from 0 out to 70 yards altough I would not shoot past 45 or so with the gun.... just my 2cents
